REMARKS BY THE HONOURABLE PRIME MINISTER BRIGADIER (RET’D) MARK PHILLIPS ON THE OCCASION OF EASTER 2025:
My fellow Guyanese,
As we come together to observe this sacred Easter season, I extend heartfelt greetings to all across Guyana and in the diaspora.
Easter is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. It is a time when we remember the suffering, crucifixion, and triumphant resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. His victory over death is the ultimate promise of hope, redemption, and new life. It reminds us that no matter how great the darkness, the light of God’s love will always prevail.
This holy season calls us to reflect deeply on Christ’s example of selflessness, forgiveness, and endless compassion. These are universal principles that continue to guide and strengthen us as a people.
In Guyana, we celebrate Easter with deep faith and vibrant tradition. Our churches echo with prayers of thanksgiving while our families gather in fellowship, and our skies are filled with colourful kites. Each one of these precious practices is a joyful symbol of Christ’s ascension and our shared hope for renewal.
It is a time to renew our commitment to one another, to our communities, and to our country. As Christians reflect on the resurrection and its promise of eternal life, all of us — regardless of faith — can embrace the Easter message of love, grace, and unity.
May we use this season to reach out with generosity, to lift up the vulnerable, and to be instruments of peace in our homes and communities. In so doing, we honour our faith and our responsibility to one another as citizens of this blessed country.
May the risen Christ fill your hearts with peace and renewed purpose.
Happy Easter, and may God continue to bless Guyana.
