On yearly basis, a mass wedding initiated by the office of the City Mayor of Gingoog City, is held every Valentines Day. For this year, I am privileged enough to be invited by the Chief Local Civil Registar, Mrs. Josefina Balsamo to render a message to the newly wed couple numbering more or less 50 pairs. No less than City Mayor Ruth Guingona officiated the wedding ceremony with the representatives from the Provinical National Statistics Office headed by Mrs. Marilou Igdon. The occasion is also guested by City Councilors Mai Mercado and Tetet Mortiz-Arao, ABC President Jun Militante and Philippine Redcross Gingoog City Chapter Chairperson Marie Guingona.
