went forward.

• Bishop Basilio Santa Justa was forced to ordain Filipino seminarians and place them in parishes in the 18th
century. It was the first time that secularization was put to the test.

• Because the secular priests were unprepared at the time, the friars protested the secularization,
promptingthe King to issue a fresh edict in 1776. The ruling put a halt to parishes secularization.

• The regular priests kept control of the parishes, and Spaniards implemented a secularization campaign in
the 19th century, with the parishes being taken over by them.

created the publication “El Eco Filipino”, which advocated for fairness and equal representation for Filipino
priests.

program for Filipino priests. This appeal should not be ignored because it may lead to animosity toward
native priests, friars, and Spaniards in the Philippines.
