HOLIDAY MESSAGE 2018 BY
MEMBER FOR THE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY
REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE SECOND ELECTORAL DISTRICT

I am Melvin Mitch Turnbull, Representative for the Second Electoral District and I’m honoured to extent Season’s Greetings to you on behalf of my family and the Second District Community.

As the year is quickly coming to an end, I pause to take a moment to reflect on 2017 and 2018. I also take a minute to give God thanks and praise for His many blessings and mercies especially after the devastating storms of 2017. Thank you Lord for remaining faithful while we are sometimes faithless, and for Your continued protection and provision for the people of the Virgin Islands.

I also take a minute to remember persons and families in my district, their families and those in the wider Virgin Islands community who have lost loved ones during the past two years. I extend my sincerest sympathies and prayers for your continued strength and peace.

In 2015, I was given the opportunity to serve this Territory to bring about change. My voice and my actions represented the change needed to put the Virgin Islands back on the right path, ensuring that country is placed above self. Together we have begun a good work, we have made significant strides to accomplish the goals set and I will continue to do my best to move District 2 forward.

God Bless you and may God continue to bless our home, our country these beloved Virgin Islands.
