The message reads, in part:

“The great Easter holiday awakens the most sincere and noble feelings and aspirations in the hearts of millions of believers and inspires them to do good.

It is gratifying that under your leadership the Russian Orthodox Church strives to strengthen and promote centuries-strong spiritual and cultural traditions of our people, and carries out important social work, doing a great deal to educate the younger generation and sustain social harmony and accord.”
