This Holy Week, President and Melania join Christians worldwide in prayer, commemorating the crucifixion and resurrection of "our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ." This significant period marks Christ’s journey from Palm Sunday to the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday night, encapsulating a time of reflection and preparation for Christians.
As President reflects on this sacred week, he acknowledges the importance of Easter's glory, recognizing the sacrifice Jesus made. "In His final hours on Earth, Christ willingly endured excruciating pain, torture, and execution on the cross out of a deep and abiding love for all His creation," he stated. These events lead to redemption, forgiveness, and hope of eternal life for believers, symbolized by the empty tomb and the triumph over darkness.
The President reiterates his Administration's commitment to defending Christian faith within various sectors. He promises, "We will never waver in safeguarding the right to religious liberty" while promoting dignity and protecting religious expressions in public life.
The President calls for prayers for the nation, hoping for America to remain a "beacon of faith, hope, and freedom." He prays for a future aligned with the ideals of Christ's eternal kingdom.
May God bless the nation during this period and the United States of America, he concludes.
