Biden Sends Greetings on Orthodox Christian Easter

President Biden today issued a Statement (full text) sending warm wishes from himself and the First Lady to those in the Orthodox Christian community celebrating Easter today. He said in part:

 Today, as we pray for all those suffering from war and persecution, we also give thanks for people around the world who are binding up the wounds of the injured and working to protect the dignity of all—including by welcoming refugees and standing up for human rights....

During this sacred season and the years ahead, we look forward to continuing to work together to build a more just and compassionate world for all God’s children.
