“Your Beatitude, I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart on the greatest Christian holiday, the Easter of the Lord Jesus Christ. May the feast in which we celebrate the joy of eternal life be an inexhaustible source of strength and optimism. Keeping our faith and tradition and strengthening the virtues of peace, love and tolerance – with joint effort, patience and wisdom, we defend our national interests and contribute to the development of Serbia.
The Serbian people are constantly fighting for their own survival, preserving the spirit and strength of the nation, and therefore, Your Beatitude, I believe that the festive prayers and Masses will contribute to our unique response to all those who wish to humiliate and destroy Serbia.
In a time of challenges that, like the entire world community, our country is living, maintaining peace and stability is an unshakable testimony of God’s Truth and Love. I wish you a happy Easter, with peace, love and joy. Happy Resurrection!”, says the President of Serbia in his letter.
It is noted that in his Easter message, His Beatitude points out: “The faith of a few people who trust in Christ is a force that helps even those who are weak in faith, and sometimes even those who have no faith. Precisely because of strong faith in Him, in His love and in His final judgment,”
