White House Sends Greetings on Orthodox Christian Easter

The White House today issued a Statement from President Biden (full text) sending warm wishes from him and the First Lady to those celebrating Orthodox Christian Easter. The Statement says in part:

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ reminds us of God’s abundant love for us and the power of light over darkness. We join Orthodox Christians in giving thanks for these and other blessings and rededicate ourselves to caring for those most in need.

In this sacred season, we hold people who are suffering from war and persecution especially close to our hearts. We will continue to pray and work for peace and justice for all people.
