In her message to the nation on the occasion of Easter, President Christine Kangaloo has encouraged citizens to embrace the true theme of the holiday – the triumph of life over death, joy over sorrow, and hope over despair.

“Christ’s victory over the grave reaffirms to all of us that, in the face of loss, uncertainty and despair, there is the power of renewal and restoration, and with it, the promise of salvation and transformation for all of humanity,” she said, in a media release on April 17.

“Let us, on the individual level, commit to doing everything we can to generate, in our own lives, a resurrection and a renewal of purpose, spirit and resolve. Let us participate fully in the Easter experience by embracing that fundamental truth about the human condition.
