Aiming for the true goal

CEBU, Philippines - After 35 years of specializing in pilgrimage tours and cruises, Delmar Travel & Tours, Inc., aims to dedicate the rest of its corporate life in the creation, promotion and marketing of pilgrimage tours that guarantee to provide passenger satisfaction, more importantly through spiritual enrichment. On the occasion of its 35th anniversary, Delmar Travel honored the families of Engr. Doroteo and Zenaida Salazar and Dr. Abdias and Ma. Socorro Villamor who have remained loyal pilgrims with Delmar up to the third generation. The family of Atty. & Mrs. Rolando Nonato was acknowledged as the Most Traveled Family. Most of the invitees have taken almost all the pilgrimage tours that Delmar Travel has organized since the 1980s. They shared the miracles and life changing experiences they experienced during the  anniversary celebration. One such pilgrim was Atty. Jacinto “Jack” Mendez who experienced instant healing in the Holyland. Delmar Travel owes its continued existence to those pilgrims.

 The simple celebration, held at the Casino Español’s Salon de España, started with a Mass celebrated by Fr. Ricky Ordoñez. Concelebrating with Fr. Ricky were priests who have joined Delmar Travel pilgrimages as Spiritual Directors. Those who made it to the occasion were Msgr. Achilles Dakay, Fr. Lucas Ynoc, Fr. Jerome Cayetano, Fr. Manuel Thomas, Fr. Arnie Visitacion, Fr. Ralph Perez, Fr. Vicente Dayao and Fr. Gerry Matriano. Fr. Dan de los Angeles, Fr. Robin Dumaguit and priests from Manila, Bacolod & Iloilo could not make it for different reasons, but they were very much represented by their fellow pilgrims who were acknowledged, standing up when the names of their tours were announced. It was an enjoyable evening of fellowship and reunions among those coming from different parts of Cebu, with those from Manila and the United States who were able to join the occasion.

To all our passengers, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks for your support for allowing us to serve you for the past 35 years. We pray that you will continue to patronize Delmar Travel in the years ahead. To those who have not tried our service, we invite you to join us soon. Together we will build a Delmar Travel family that we hope will become true evangelizers for Christ!” Marilou V. Ordoñez,  President & General Manager, exhorted during the celebration. (FREEMAN)
