Merry Christmas from State Senator Mark Messmer… Merry Christmas By State Sen. Mark Messmer (R-Jasper)   This time of year is always special as friends and families gather together to celebrate the holidays. All of us have our own Christmas traditions like going to our favorite church service, making a special recipe that we only make this time of year, or heading to holiday parties. For me, Christmas is all about spending time with my family. With our children grown and moved out, it’s always special for my wife and I to have our kids under our roof once again and sharing meals together. We spend our time making Christmas candy, fudge, ginger bread cookies, truffles and various other Christmas cookies. When our children were younger, they would help us with the baking and help pass out our sweets to friends and family as gifts. Growing up, my mom had the idea for her and all of my siblings to play our musical instruments as we performed Christmas carols as a family. We’ve kept this tradition going with our family band of around 25 people visiting the nursing homes in the area. Another tradition my family has is attending our church’s midnight mass. In high school,…
In his weekly report, State Senator Mark Messmer gives us a Thanksgiving Message… Thankful for Time with Family By State Sen. Mark Messmer (R-Jasper)  The holiday season is officially upon us. Families and friends are gathering together for Thanksgiving, and Christmas is just around the corner. The times we share with loved ones at the table brings families together and creates life-long memories and traditions. Thanksgiving has been celebrated in our great country ever since George Washington proclaimed that Americans should acknowledge the presence of God and give Him “our sincere and humble thanks.” In fact, Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day in the midst of the Civil War. He wanted all Americans to remember the gracious gifts that had been bestowed upon them even as war was tearing the country apart. Each family has its own holiday traditions, but food is typically the centerpiece for Thanksgiving with families gathering together for turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans and other fall favorites. I always enjoy deep-frying a turkey for my family to enjoy along with homemade pumpkin pie and made-from-scratch dressing. My wife and I also take time during the weekend to put up our Christmas decorations. While I’m getting everything set up outside, she…

Nov. 3, 2017 Next Level Recovery Last month, Gov. Eric Holcomb launched Indiana’s Next Level Recovery website, which serves as an online resource for Hoosiers that addresses the opioid crisis in our state. Next Level Recovery offers ever-evolving information on Indiana’s opioid battle to emergency personnel, community leaders, law enforcement officials and healthcare professionals, as well as those struggling with substance abuse disorders and their families. The website includes data on opioid abuse prevention, treatment and enforcement; information on state initiatives; and ways for Hoosiers and employers to get involved. Indiana lawmakers are working hard to combat the drug epidemic in our state, and I hope to see this resource have a positive impact on our efforts. For more information or to visit the site, click here.
