Easter’s reminder that hope is never lost can drive our commitment to serve.
“He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.” — Matthew 28:6
Easter is a time of joy, reflection, and renewal. It is the foundation of our faith, a reminder of the ultimate sacrifice made for us, and a call to live with purpose and love for one another. As we gather with family and friends to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, we should also take this opportunity to reflect on how we can better serve our neighbors and our communities.
Service to others is one of the most powerful ways we can live out our faith. Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves, to care for the sick, to help the poor, and to bring comfort to those in need. Here in Kentucky, we have a long tradition of stepping up for one another in times of hardship and offering a helping hand to those who need it most.
Over the past year, we have seen the strength and compassion of our communities on full display. Whether it was helping those recovering from devastating storms, supporting families facing tough economic times, or simply showing kindness to a neighbor, Kentuckians have continued to embody the spirit of service that makes our Commonwealth strong.
Easter reminds us that hope is never lost, and new beginnings are always possible. Just as Christ’s resurrection brought new life to the world, we too can renew our commitment to making our communities better, stronger, and more united. This means standing up for our values, protecting our families, and ensuring that Kentucky remains a place where faith, hard work, and kindness are at the heart of everything we do.
As your representative, I am committed to serving the people of Kentucky with honesty, integrity, and faith in the future of our great state. I believe that by working together, we can uphold the principles that make our communities thrive—faith, family, and freedom. Whether through strengthening our schools, supporting small businesses, or ensuring the safety of our neighborhoods, we must always strive to build a better Kentucky for future generations.
This Easter, let us take time to thank God for His many blessings and to seek His guidance in all that we do. Let us remember the sacrifice made for us and respond by living lives of service, compassion, and unwavering faith.
May God bless you and your family this Easter season, and may He continue to bless the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
