The beautiful Mountain Pines Place
Later on today, I will make the trip to beautiful Mountain Pines Place in Dahilayan, Bukidnon for the Couples’ Retreat that I have advertised on this blog, The Story Of Us, as I will emcee the event. Please pray for me, guys. I’ve done quite a bit of emceeing in the past, but it makes me nervous every time.Well, in honor of this event, below are some beautiful quotes for a happy marriage and family. Enjoy!
