Santa Madre Ingreja, as you use it, is probably not a parish church. You usually find it as part of the formula used in a marriage record, e.g. "casaram conforme o ritual de Santa Madre Igreja conforme os decretos do Sagrado Concilio de Trento..." (They were married in accordance to the ritual of Holy Mother, the Church, as decreed by the Council of Trent, etc....) So Santa Madre Igreja is a title given to describe the Catholic Church, as mother of the faithful.
