“I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.”
John Adams letter to his wife on July 3, 1776.

for Warren County Ohio

Executive Committee and Party Chairman
Rev. Christian Mays
Christian Mays currently represents Precinct 147 to the Warren County Republican Central Committee, and Senate District 7 to the Republican State Central Committee.
​
Christian is an Ordained Minister in the Church of God. He is a husband, a father, and a grandfather that believes in the American view of government, which is to say he views it thru a biblical lens.
​
"Our rights are given by God, not government, and certainly not by men. I believe the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence which coins the phrase "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness," fully encompass the God given vision upon which this country was founded."
​
As a firm believer in the biblical principle found in Proverbs 27:17 that Iron sharpens Iron, and with nearly 30 years of experience in leadership and management, Reverend Mays has built a life and a career of service to his fellow man.
​
Christian lives in Franklin Township with his wife of over 26 years Francella.
