Ecclesiastical history of Bandera

In 1911 Bandera was transformed into a prominent community . The then faithful Catholics of that time called for the establishment of a parish, precisely in the same year that the independent parish, and subsequently diocese, of Añatuya was formed. Intervention in ecclesiastical matters came from the Belgrano and Taboada departments, by way of then Archbishop Juan Yaniz y Paz, Bishop of the Diocese of Santiago del Estero. He appointed authority of the new section to Priest Paul F. Blasco, who went to Bandera and from the communal authority requested the formation of a pro-church commission and provincial school, involving: ulio Hamman, Jose Pedrazzini, Juan Bautista Omacini, Facundo de Martiola, Julian Gongora, Constantino Coppola, Augusto Savi, Natalio De La Llama, Vicente Pintaudi, Toribio Coronel and Inés Paz. These met in an official meeting on September 12, 1912, and made the first act in which it was unanimously decided that San Isidro Labrador would be named as the patron saint of the community of San Francisco Solano.
