Caretaker Prime Minister Emil Dimitriev accompanied by his wife attended Sunday morning at “St. Nikola” church in Stip the holy Easter liturgy led by Metropolitan Hilarion of Bregalnica.
Christ has Risen! I congratulate this greatest holiday to all Orthodox Christians, to all Macedonians in Macedonia and in Diaspora. Let Christ's Resurrection be a lesson to us all that only good deeds, love and understanding between people is something that we should nurture, Dimitriev said.
He wished this holiday to bring more love and understanding in all families, and if we have misunderstandings with anyone in the past to be resolved with the common sense and positive thought.
Metropolitan Hilarion of Bregalnica congratulated the Easter to Orthodox Christians and wished that the risen Lord, who conquered death and has given peace to world and the human race, to release us from sins and to bestow peace and prosperity to our homeland.
Easter solemn liturgies are also held all churches in Bregalnica Eparchy.
