Divine love
“Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.
Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson
Just recently, Fr. Jose Francisco “Jocis” Syquia gave his mother Letty Syquia the most wonderful gift of the Mass. After coming from his own birthday retreat, Fr. Jocis was joined by seven other priests and some close friends including DILG Undersecretary Marius Corpus, Imelda Cojuangco, Justa Tantoco and Mercy Tuason for the intimate celebration. It was a truly inspiring day and a spectacular way of showing love to one’s mother.
To love and to cherish
A happy union of two souls in love took place recently at the Manila Cathedral when Denny Ngo and Ria Zamora were joined together in a solemn and truly elegant wedding ceremony. The charming couple, the children of Thomas and Pacita Ngo and Roberto and Jazmin Zamora, was surrounded by their dearest family and friends on this special occasion. Following the church ceremony, the newlyweds celebrated their newfound life together at the Rigodon Ballroom of the Peninsula Manila Hotel, where a memorable reception was held.
Wishing you the best of married life, Denny and Ria!
