Going Home

Going Home...
Little did Fely Ramos, the Consular and Cultural Attache of the Philippine Embassy  know that when his youngest son Emmanuel Jr joined her in Abuja, her life will be changed - for the better. She relinquished her son and gained a daughter. Emmanuel Ramos Jr and Lyn Mante  just married on 30th April 2011 and now they are set to leave Abuja, Nigeria to start a life, a new life in Lyn's hometown Davao. 
The sponsors/godparents during the wedding gave a send-off dinner for the couple last Saturday 20th April.
Prayers and wishes for a very bright, prosperous and happy future for the couple!
