Is there an obligation to attend alternative worship services?

[Walking_Home]

In a situation where there would be no availability of a Catholic Mass ( both Latin and Eastern Catholic rites Liturgies not available) are we under the obligation to attend an Eastern Orthodox Liturgy and if this is not available a protestant worship service in order to meet our Sunday obligation.
