The Church Historians’ Association of the Philippines (CHAP) has rejected a new book that asserts Butuan in Mindanao was the site of the first recorded Mass in the Philippines in 1521.
The group was reacting to a book published by a priest claiming that the Mass was held in Butuan’s Mazaua Island and not in Limasawa.
The assertion was made by Fr. Joesilo Amalla in his book titled, “An Island They Called Mazaua: The Truth About the Site of the First Holy Mass in the Philippines.”

First Holy Mass controversy

LANDSCAPE
The first Holy Mass was celebrated not in the Visayas but in Mindanao because that historical event, that first step to staking territory in the name of God and King, occurred not in Limasawa which is part of the Visayas, but in Butuan (Mazaua) situated in northern Mindanao. Please do not think that I am unilaterally and presumptuously overturning the final decision of the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (formerly called National Historical Institute).
When bona fide historians clash swords, gore each other with codices, translations and digital copies in hi-resolution, stab with cartographic rolls unearthed in eminent archives, brandish ancient eye-witness accounts, it is best for humble history buffs like me to take cover and watch from a safe distance. ....
