“Today in the whole Ukraine, in every its church and temple, in Ukrainian and in other languages we glad to celebrate light holyday of Resurrection. Yet as apostle Paul wrote, “One God! One Faith! One Baptism!” However, it is also one Homeland for us as long as God and Ukraine unify us. Easter – winning of faith against despair, salvation against hopelessness, good against evil and triumph of life against death.

Through the Resurrection, Christ proved that the utmost difficulties, the hardest woes which have been chosen to fall on our fate, may be and will be vanquished! It is exceptionally important to remember in times of severe challenges.

Today we all should be as a one big family. And we have a true hope in the winning of life over death.

The war will be inevitably ended because we strive to peace and we have God and Justice on our side.”

Christ is Risen!
