First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Serbia Ivica Dacic received an Easter greeting card from Metropolitan of Volokolamsk Hilarion, Chairman of the Department of External Relations of the Moscow Patriarchate.

“Please accept my heartfelt congratulations on the radiant feast of the resurrection of Christ with the words of Paschal joy: Christ is risen!

The holy apostle Paul writes in his letter to the Christians of Corinth: “Christ died for all, so that those who live might live no longer for themselves, but for him who died and was raised for them” (2 Cor 5:15).

The steadfast observance of Christ’s commandments makes us partakers in the Lord and grants to us the strength to serve the cause of good and relations of mutual respect between people.

On this radiant and joyful day I wish you from the risen Saviour strength of body and soul, and blessed success in your labours and service”, reads the Easter card signed by Metropolitan Hilarion.


Congratulations to Metropolitan Hilarion
