The first Planned Divine Liturgy of Byzantine Rite in the Philippine and the Study Group

At first this was the first plan i have in hand when i created the Group Eastern Rite Catholic Filipinos and after the Fan Page was created at the same time. Though i am very optimistic at this one, i know for a fact that there will be a Opposition against it, mainly those who are coming from some People in the Traditional Movement, who are promoting the Extraordinary Form of the Latin Rite and along with them are the Local Ordinaries, saying that there is no Canonical establishment of such Eastern Catholic Community here but a widespread group of Eastern Catholic who are Transient in Nature and second to those that we will against this idea is the Philippine Exarchate of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, and i know for a fact how some of this Eastern Orthodox are very hostile to Eastern Catholicism, and even some calling me a "AGENT OF UNIATISM", have to make that one to Bold Letters to emphasize what was called to me by this People

I was told also here in my previous post last Month at this Link here, i am very fortunate to Chat with some Filipinos in Facebook who are residing in North America who have been admitted as Members of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic, plus to this, i am also very bless to know  in Australia the Chancellor of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Eparchy, Very. Rev. Olexander Kenez and a Melkite friend there, Collin Michael Nunis who are conversing to me on how we can celebrate a Divine Liturgy in the Philippines according to the Byzantine Rite.

I know for a fact there are numerous Divine Liturgies of Eastern Catholic which have been celebrated here, but most of ti are Holy Qurbana of the Syro Malabar Catholics and Maronite Catholics, and i hear comments how Latinized are this Holy Mass according to the both Antiochene and Syro-Oriental/Chaldean Rite. Well i can understand the situation of the Syro Malabar Catholics, knowing that they have lost a lot of their Liturgical Heritage because of Portuguese interference while the Maronites has been ever since prone to Latinization, and i also hear the desire of some to experience the beauty and rich liturgical essence of the Greek Rite, sometimes ending up observing the Divine Liturgy of the Eastern Orthodox here.

My friends, both Abroad and here are helping me to form this Eastern Catholic Study Group, a Community of few People who have expressed their support that there should be a disseminated information regarding Eastern Catholicism, which is unknown to all Catholics of the Dominant Latin Rite (or called Roman Catholics by our Brethren Eastern Catholics) and to make everyone know the beauty of the Liturgical Tradition, Theological Emphasis and Popular Piety in the East among our Eastern Catholic brothers, and once we have organized things well here, within this year perharps or next maybe, we can invite Priest at nearby Australia (cause it is the nearest Eastern Catholic canonical territory, of which there is a Eparchy for Melkite Greek Catholics and Ukrainian Greek Catholics) to give talks regarding Eastern Catholicism and even celebrated Divine Liturgy in private, so that a public celebration might not spark a protest from the Eastern Orthodox Community here. Still i am looking for it to happen, but for now there are still planning, organizing and foresights on some possibilities.
