Providenciales, TCI, December 28, 2016 –  “It is with profound pleasure that I bring holiday greetings to the people of the Turks and Caicos Islands on behalf of the Office of the Leader of the Opposition, and the Progressive National Party during this advent season and as we look forward to the New Year.”

“This annual season gives us an opportunity like no other time to reflect and introspect.  Reflect on the events of the last twelve months and how it has shaped the lives of us all.  In that regard we have much to be thankful for as our beloved Turks and Caicos continues to prosper, and be peaceful albeit new concerns about increased crime. Introspective as we look-back over our own behavior and actions to discover consistencies and contradictions regarding our calling to ‘Love mercy and do justly’ and to walk in humility before our God.

“In the words of the great philosophers – ‘the unexamined life is not worth living’. As we examine our own lives let us extend charity in words and in deed and repent of the motives for the way we have judged others so that the spirit of goodwill to all men ushered in by the saviour will prevail.”

“As we face a new year we will continue to experience triumphs and despair at the personal and national level for so goes the course of life.  Let us resolve to summon the courage to face these girded in the faith of our fathers pledging our commitment first to God and our loyalty to country above self and all others.” 

“As some of you look forward to the promise of change I find the words of Shakespeare appropriate.”

“This above all: to thine own self be true

And it must follow, as the night the day

Thou canst not then be false to any man.”

“May God’s blessings continue to be with us all during this season.”
