"Hello, this is Congressman Rick Allen and I’d like to extend my heartfelt wishes for a Merry Christmas to each and every one of you across Georgia’s 12th District. In the spirit of this festive season, I pray that you are surrounded by your loved ones and never lose sight of the true meaning of the season.
"As we celebrate this special time, let us take a moment to remember the heartwarming story that lies at the core of the Christmas holiday—the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in Bethlehem. His birth symbolizes hope, salvation, and the embodiment of God's love for humanity, as He is truly at the heart of all our blessings.
"It says in James 1:17, 'Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.'
"As the Chairman of the Congressional Prayer Caucus, if you or anyone you know is in need of prayer, I encourage you to submit a request on my website so my colleagues and I can lift you or your loved one up in prayer. Let us come together and embrace the true spirit of the holiday season and may the blessings of this sacred day fill your hearts with joy and grace. Merry Christmas and God bless."
