SPECIAL MESSAGE: Congresswoman Elect Mia Love from the State of Utah has sent you this "Christmas Message"



# # # #

Merry Christmas! My husband Jason, our three children, and I send you our warmest wishes this holiday season.

The message of Christmas is one of hope and gratitude. I personally have much optimism for the future and much to be thankful for. This past year has been one of the busiest yet most rewarding times of my life, and as I reflect on all that has happened, I feel a responsibility to do everything I can to help improve the lives of my fellow Utahns and Americans.

Christmas reminds us that greatness often comes from humble beginnings. Our Lord, whose birth we celebrate each Christmas, taught us to love and serve one another. This holiday season, I encourage us all to reflect on and apply the true meaning of Christmas: putting others before ourselves, giving more than we receive, and bringing happiness to those we encounter.

Lastly, I want to express my gratitude to the men and women serving in our armed forces all around the world. Our brave servicemen and women courageously defend our freedom each and every day. Their sacrifice away from family is always much appreciated, particularly during the holiday season.

God bless you and your loved ones, and thank you for the opportunity to serve you in Congress.

Sincerely,

Mia Love
Congresswoman-elect from Utah
