Toastmasters in love - what a beautiful thing to witness!
From your days leading Mez1 Toastmasters Club as our Past Presidents, we saw your dedication, your vision, and your service. But over time, we also saw something even more wonderful unfold: a friendship that deepened, a bond that strengthened, and a love that bloomed and grew right before our eyes.

We have been so privileged to watch your story unfold. Two leaders, two hearts, finding their way to each other: speaking the same language, sharing the same values, and building something beautiful together.

Today our hearts are full. We are so incredibly happy to see you both united in marriage, officially joining your lives and your hearts as one.

May your journey together be filled with all the joy, respect, and kindness you have always shown our club. May you continue to grow together, lead together, and love each other a little more with every passing day.

Congratulations to our beloved Past Presidents Moises Cujardo and Elle Lopez-Cujardo: may your marriage be your greatest speech, your finest achievement, and your most beautiful chapter. We love you both!

From your Mez1 Toastmasters family — congratulations and best wishes always!

MEZ1 Installation of Officers | June 28, 2026

This day was not only about the induction of the upcoming officers for the term 2026- 2027 but also a moment to recall about MEZ1's achievements throughout the year 2025-2026.

Reminding us of the past officer's hard work and perseverance to continue MEZ1's outstanding performance in public speaking, leadership, and camaraderie with the friends we've made along the way.

Quoted from the newly installed MEZ1 Toastmasters Club President: Mae Florecelle Labra - Yap, PM3, MS3;

"Toastmaster Jun successfully led all of us in reviving the club, and I intend to continue his efforts. Last term, we were able to strengthen our connection and clearly share the benefits of a toastmaster program. I invite each one to intentionally help cultivate a safe environment and strong connection so we can continue this endeavor and our goals. More than our speech projects and leadership goals, may we be more human and better people as we forge partnerships inside and across Toastmasters clubs. Thank you for willingly accepting the invitation to serve the club with me this term."

Thank you to everyone who joined, participated and made this event unforgettable. Here's to an amazing term ahead! 🥂✨
