katolikong misa sa Pilipinas. Pinangunahan ito ni Padre Pedro de Valderrama. And today
we have two sources that would serves as evidences. The First sources is Francisco
Albo, he was a pilot in one of the Magellan’s ship, Trinidad, and he is one of the 18
survivors who go along with Sebastian Del Cano going back to Spain, also known for
participating in expedition of Ferdinand Magellan. According to his primary sources, he
did not mention about the first mass, he just mentioned about the plating of the cross on
the top of the hill, he did not also mentioned about Limasawa and Masao. Ano ang ibig
sabihin nito? Base sa analysis sa latitude at sa location na isinulat ni Albo, sa Limasawa
sa southern tip ng Leyte ito nagyari.
The second source is Antonio Pigafetta, siya ay isang Italian nobleman, a cartographer at
geographer, he travelled with the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan and his crew on their
first voyage around the world. Ayon sa kanyang Testimoy, nabanggit niya ang Mazaua, after
staying seven days in island at doon naganap ang first mass of course sa Mazaua sa Leyte
(Limasawa na ngayon). Nabanggit di niya kung “Paano ito nagyari”, kung “Paano nangyari ang
unang misa”, kung “Kailan ito nangyari”, at kung “Saan ito nangyari”.
