Our Love Story

 The love story of Philmore and Lilia began along a quiet street in Andalucia, Manila—an unassuming place that would become the setting of a lifelong journey together. During her college years, Lilia faithfully commuted from Cavite to the Lyceum of the Philippines University, dedicating herself to her studies despite the physical toll of daily travel and sleepless nights. In time, she chose to move to Manila, where she completed her degree in Business Administration with perseverance and grace.


At that same time, Philmore was building his own path, having completed his degree in Accounting at the University of the East and serving as a security guard at the Bureau of Internal Revenue in Escolta, Manila.


Fate brought them together as neighbors in an apartment complex in Andalucia, where they were formally introduced by a relative. From that simple introduction blossomed a love that would grow steadily through the years. While Lilia continued her studies, their relationship deepened over three years, grounded in companionship, trust, and shared dreams. Soon after her graduation, they chose to unite in marriage in a quiet and intimate ceremony—a decision born out of love and commitment.


During a memorable trip to Baguio, they made another life-changing decision: to leave Manila behind and begin a new chapter on Dr. Alejos Street in Quezon City, where they would build their home and raise their family.


Like all enduring love stories, theirs was tested by time and circumstance. Philmore entered the military, a path that called him to serve in distant provinces and often kept him away from his family for long periods. These separations were made even more challenging during the years of Martial Law. Yet through every hardship, Lilia remained steadfast, and together, they held firmly to their faith in God.


By His grace, Philmore was brought home safely, and through every trial they faced, their love only grew stronger. What they built together was not merely a marriage, but a partnership rooted in resilience, faith, and unwavering devotion.
