The People’s Progressive Party (PPP) extend warm Easter greetings to all Guyanese, especially our Christian brothers and sisters, as we observe this sacred and joyous occasion.
Easter holds profound spiritual significance for Christians around the world. It commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ — a powerful symbol of triumph over suffering, and renewal and everlasting hope. The message of Easter is one of redemption, faith, and unwavering belief in the possibility of new beginnings. It reminds us all, regardless of faith, of the importance of compassion, humility, tolerance, and love for one another.
The story of the resurrection is not only central to Christianity, but also offers universal lessons of perseverance, sacrifice, and the belief that light can emerge even in the darkest of moments. In these teachings, we find encouragement to rise above personal and collective challenges with strength and unity.
In Guyana, Easter is more than a religious observance; it is a celebration of our shared culture and diversity. Across our country, Guyanese from all backgrounds come together in the spirit of unity as families and communities partake in the beloved tradition of kite-flying. This vibrant display in our skies symbolizes freedom, renewal, and the joy of togetherness that defines us as a people.
As we celebrate, the PPP also encourage all Guyanese —especially our children and young people — to observe safety measures while flying kites in order to ensure that the holiday remains one of joy and peace for everyone.
Let us be inspired by the values of Easter, and reaffirm our collective commitment to building a more inclusive, compassionate, and hopeful nation.
Once again, a Happy and Blessed Easter to all!
