FR. MARTIN (Reynato) Parayno serves as pastor of Señor Santa Niño de Cebú Parish in San Antonio, Texas.
Parayno, from the Philippines has served in that capacity for the past 10 years.
Parayno became the parish priest for Señyor Santa Niño de Cebú Parish after former parish priest Fr. Bert Selga, a Filipino diocesan priest, returned home to the Philippines in 1999.
Parayno was appointed parish priest in 2000 and few years later, his order based in the Philippines, granted him another five years to guide the Santo Nino parish.
Described as a “energetic and young priest”, Parayno quickly earned the respect and support of the Filipino community in the San Antonio area. Señyor Santa Niño de Cebú Parish is the only Filipino American parish in the area. The church was formed by a group of dedicated FilAms who were members of the The Santo Nino Association.
