One Wedding and a Funeral

Wedding this morning was so touching. I shed tears when the bride and groom were sharing their message in the Church. Finally, two of our friends and former colleagues tied the knot. Maricel and Jeremy, both musically inclined and devout Christians are going to start a family. Everybody wishes them well and say "hope you'll have children who will become priests/nuns in the future". God bless to both of them.

Arriving from Kapangan from the wedding celebration, I refreshed a little and went right away to the funeral of Mrs. C."Lac"  F. Mayo. Heard the mass commemorating a life well lived for 68 years. She's not a smoker but they say lung cancer claimed her. I remember her so well as the sweet, smiling, kind lady. Met her when she was near her retirement but in her matured age, she showed me that a woman can still be beautiful and well loved despite the age. In my eyes, she's like the matured Audrey Hepburn. The grace and her character outshines her frail and old body. This is an example I want to follow. Godbless Ma'am Mayo's soul.

May Mrs. Mayos' soul rest in peace in God's arms... I wonder how she's related with Karen Mayos?

And may more friends pray that your colleagues indeed rear future priest/ nuns, our increasing numbers indeed need more of them...
