Christ is Risen! Truly Risen!
Dear friends!
The festive bells of Ukrainian churches announce to everyone the arrival of the bright holiday of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Easter is a holiday of the victory of life over death, light over darkness, and truth over injustice. We know from the Holy Scriptures that this Great Day was preceded by the darkest night in the world, but it was after it that the Resurrection came!
Today, when the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the entire Ukrainian nation are waging a heroic struggle for our freedom and statehood, we draw strength and faith precisely from the majestic Resurrection of Christ. We are convinced that the dark night that has hung over our land will end with a bright, victorious dawn. Just as Christ overcame death, so Ukraine will certainly gain its complete Victory over the enemy, overcoming all temporary challenges. We believe in our strength, in the unity of our nation, in the justice of our struggle.
We sincerely congratulate the entire great Ukrainian nation, worldwide: our victorious warriors, tireless volunteers, all who bring Victory closer with the holiday of Easter! May this festive time strengthen in each of us strength, steadfastness, strength of faith and spirit. May the Risen Lord bless our Armed Forces, our struggle, and the entire Ukrainian people!
Christ is Risen! Ukraine will rise!
