President Bharrat Jagdeo has expressed the hope that Guyanese will find hope, strength and inspiration from the powerful Easter message that the victory at Calvary represents.
Extending Easter greetings to all Guyanese and especially the Christian community, the President added: “In Guyana, the observance of Christ’s resurrection is greeted with great joy. It is a time of great happiness throughout our land and this is evident in the many activities planned for the long Easter weekend. Amongst the most popular are the Rupununi Rodeo, the Bartica Regatta and the traditional kite-flying activities. I trust that as you participate in these activities, you will do (so) with a buoyant spirit, one that reinforces the bonds of family, friendship and community, and that you will be ever mindful of the need to reinforce the values of self- sacrifice, compassion, love, forgiveness and reconciliation that are so central to the Easter Story. “
