December With The Senior Couples

During December we had a few days to relax and enjoy our wonderful Senior Couples. First we visited Corregidor Island, and then we all gathered to celebrate Christmas. We dearly love each of these couples!
Individually they bless us with their experience, talents, and insight.
Together they "put their shoulders to the wheel" and help Cavite mission move forward. 

Corredigor Island
"The Rock" is the largest of 5 islands that dot the entrance to Manila Bay. During WWII, whoever had control over Corregidor had complete control of the bay. It is a tourist attraction now, a memory of lives lost to insure freedom.
