As part of the of the Philippine Navy's traditional
month-long celebration of Christmas and other religious activities, 10 navy
personnel simultaneously tied the knots with their partners during a mass
wedding ceremony held at Holy Child Chapel, Marine Barracks Rudiardo Brown,
Taguig City on Saturday.
Coming from different units of the PN, the couples uttered
their vows, witnessed by Navy Chief, Vice Admiral Jesus C. Millan; Vice
Commander, Rear Admiral Caesar C. Taccad, Philippine Fleet Commander; Rear Admiral
Jaime S. Bernardino, Philippine Marine Corps Commandant; Major Gen. Rustico
Guerrero, Deputy Commandant; Brigadier Gen. Jose Johriel Cenabre, Naval Combat
Engineering Brigade Commander; Commodore Elmer C. Carrillo and members of
Headquarters, Philippine Navy (HPN) Staff who also stood as principal sponsors.
This activity aims to sustain the religious consciousness as
regards to the importance and sanctity of marriage among PN personnel and their
dependents.
A month earlier, the Navy received the Family Values Award
from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (CJCLDS) in recognition of
the command’s programs in advancing the standard of morality and values of its
personnel.
The programs included mass weddings, marriage enrichment
seminars and spiritual enhancement seminars that were regularly being conducted
by the PN through the Office of the Naval Chief Chaplain under the leadership
of Col. Benifranco M. Rada.
