FOR THE DETAILS, HERE IS PATRICIA DASIGAN

NEWS REPORTER: In a groundbreaking and pivotal maritime expedition that would

shape the course of history, Ferdinand Magellan, accompanied by his intrepid

European crew, embarked on a momentous journey from the port of San Lucar de

Barrameda. Their ambitious quest? To traverse uncharted waters and seek out the

elusive treasures of precious spices that held immense value in the Old World. Setting

sail through proximate regions, Magellan and his crew navigated the unpredictable

seas, facing challenges and uncertainties that were characteristic of the unexplored

expanses they encountered. The year was 1521, and on March 28th, a date etched in

the annals of exploration, the crew's keen eyes spotted a distant bonfire on the

horizon. Little did they know that this sighting would lead them to a significant

discovery—the welcoming shores of Limasawa in the Philippines.

Dawn of Roman Catholicism in the Philippines.

Here is Paul Briones for this report

NEWS REPORTER: In a momentous event on March 31, 1521, Easter Sunday, the

tranquil shores of Limasawa Island, Leyte witnessed a significant chapter in

Philippine history. Under the command of Ferdinand Magellan, a mass was convened,

officiated by Father Pedro Valderrama, the Andalusian chaplain of the fleet. This

Holy First Mass, conducted near the island's coastline, marked the inception of

Roman Catholicism in the archipelago. Colambu and Siaiu, natives of the uncharted

lands that would later become the Philippines, became the first witnesses to this

pivotal religious milestone. At the time, the archipelago bore no name, and its

inhabitants were unaware that this sacred ceremony would shape the cultural and

religious landscape of their future nation. The echoes of that Easter Sunday Mass in

Limasawa Island would resonate for centuries, laying the foundation for the enduring

presence of Roman Catholicism in the Philippines.

Here’s Vince Atienza for the details

NEWS REPORTER: In a landmark event, the inaugural Mass in Cebu unfolded with

profound significance as almost 500 Cebuanos embraced baptism, including

prominent figures Rajah Homonhon and Rajah Kolambu. The occasion was further

distinguished by the generous gesture of explorer Ferdinand Magellan, who bestowed

upon Juana a cherished image of the Sto. Niño, symbolizing the holy child Jesus. As a

lasting testament to this transformative event, Magellan oversaw the erection of a

substantial cross, serving as a poignant marker at the baptismal site. The convergence

of faith, cultural exchange, and historic baptisms in Cebu heralds a chapter of

enduring significance in the annals of religious and regional history.

ANCHOR 1: LImasawa Law Declares Historic Site a National Shrine

Here’s JEHAN CARPACIO for the news update

NEWS REPORTER: June 19, 1960 - In a momentous development, Republic Act No.

2733, popularly known as the Limasawa Law, has been enacted, marking a significant

chapter in Philippine history. Notably, this legislation was implemented without the

signature of the President of the Philippines. The Limasawa Law carries profound

implications, designating the site in Magallanes, Limasawa Island, within the

Province of Leyte, as a national shrine. This historic location holds paramount

importance as it was the site where the first Mass in the Philippines was conducted.
The legislative fiat aims to immortalize and commemorate the birth of Christianity in

the archipelago. This decision reflects a pivotal step in acknowledging and preserving

the cultural and religious heritage embedded in the Philippines' narrative.

ANCHOR 1: Historical Debate Resolved: Limasawa confirmed as the site of the first

mass. Here is Kathreen Bahinting for this report

NEWS REPORTER: In a landmark decision, the National Historical Commission of

the Philippines (NHCP) has put an end to a long-standing historical dispute regarding

the location of the first mass in the Philippines. While the prevailing belief until the

19th century pointed to Butuan, recent consensus, supported by many historians and

the government, now firmly places Limasawa off the tip of Southern Leyte as the

historical site. The controversy revolved around conflicting claims, with some

asserting that the initial mass occurred in Masao, Butuan. To settle the debate, the

NHCP panel meticulously reviewed evidence and arguments presented by pro-Butuan

advocates. Unanimously, the panel concluded that these assertions lacked sufficient
strength and persuasiveness to warrant a repeal or reversal of the ruling by the

National Historical Institute, the NHCP's predecessor.
