U.S. Congressman Mike Flood has released a statement ahead of the Christmas holiday, which is celebrated on December 25, 2024. The recorded message, available for media use, emphasizes the spiritual and historical significance of Christmas.

In his remarks, Congressman Flood highlights the religious importance of Christmas as "the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ." He describes it as a reminder of God's love and the gift of hope and redemption through Jesus. Flood notes that even two thousand years later, the essence of Christmas encourages living with faith, hope, and love.

The congressman also reflects on the sacrifices made by military personnel serving the country. He draws a parallel to General George Washington's experience at Valley Forge during the Revolutionary War. In facing adversity, Washington sought divine guidance—a moment Flood believes is integral to America's historical narrative.

Flood concludes by acknowledging this year's significant events and challenges while honoring those in armed service who ensure peace during festive times. He extends warm wishes from his family to others for safe travels and a joyful celebration.
