APP Christmas Message

Christmas is a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Luke 2:11 states, “For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. As a people, as we celebrate Christmas, I want us to reflect on the values that Jesus Christ represented, because the teachings of Christ are fundamental to us. 1st Corinthians 13 states, “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

As a people and as a nation let us stay true to the teachings of Christ and show love to each other. Let us give generously to the less fortunate and let us be a voice on their behalf. Visit the sick, feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, clothe those who are without and let the love of Christ be manifested through our actions.

As we celebrate Christmas, I urge you the people of Dominica to continue to take responsibility for your health and safety, and to adhere to the covid protocols. Let us continue to fight this pandemic together.

It is not easy to say Merry Christmas to you the people of Dominica as there are not much within the economy to feel merry about. So, I ask you to focus on the gift of life and health that God has given to us. Be encouraged to focus on the positives that we have accomplished as a people and to believe if we all unite, support and show love and compassion for each other that we can have hope for a brighter future. Let us dedicate our Country to God, pray for all our leaders that they can use wisdom as they lead the people and that they can have a conscience when making decisions on behalf of the people.

God Bless you, God Bless Dominica and have a Merry Christmas.

    This lady looks familiar! Who is she, really? Anybody?

    @Ibo, “No rational elector would even entertain the thought of considering voting for you or your disorderly group”. Really???
    I believe you’ve lost all credibility when it comes to advising folks about who they should consider voting for after your last endorsement “HAND Bag”.
    Keep writing about the various ills of society but stay away from advising individuals on who they should or shouldn’t consider voting for.

    Hot debate. What do you think? Thumb up 6 Thumb down 14

      Mark, the lady has fallen out of favour with the Dominican public. She cannot be trusted. She may be part of App but her loyalty seems to be with Skerrit and his severely corrupt kakistocracy.

      Stop making a mountain from a mole hill. Happy New Year when it comes around.

    This woman should be taken on seriously. Look at the other Christmas greetings given by four men and compare it to that of the woman. The lengthy twa la la by the men were boring, I got lost after the first paragraph. Lady go after your aspirations.

      In all seriousness, only a fool can take this lady seriously. The lady is highly controversial; a foe of truth and transparency; very intransigent.

      She embraces the tyrannical leader in darkness and shun him in the light. Judge people by their actions rather than their words. Anybody can quote scriptures, few people practise them in their daily lives. Does this lady impress as a woman of sincerity and propriety knowing that her first public utterances were intended to deceive?

        Good thing she did not endorse handbag. Handbag is now in the trash bag. It took you IBO a while to recuperate. Now you are back in the limelight again, all the doors that were shut are now back open again. It will take you more than a lifetime to defeat the Supreme Leader, Sir Roosevelt Skerrit. That was the same thing you echoed about Vince Henderson and Vince prevailed. Get a life, IBO and find yourself a job.

          You ds, ” Get a life Ink and find yourself a job.” In today’s Dominica, finding a job is as difficult as a source of water in the Sahara Desert. Unemployment is the highest it has ever been in Dominica since adult suffrage.

          DNO can you help me out by getting the updated stats for the unemployment rate and poverty level in Dominica?

          ADMIN: We can certainly try. Our previous attempts to garner up-to-date statistics have gone largely unrewarded.

        She also highly conceited in my humble opinion. Save us from people like that.

    Ms. Blanchard, stop trying to impose yourself on the Dominican people. You and your divided political party are of no consequence. No rational elector would even entertain the thought of considering voting for you or your disorderly group.

    Try instead to do some activism and advocacy for the many poverty -stricken and severely oppressed citizens. Merry Christmas!

    Perhaps your party should heed your message before you make meaningless public pronouncements.
    You guys are fighting each other and at Christmastime you come here talking about Jesus?
    You are nothing but a hypocrite.
