On the occasion of the celebration of Easter we
call on all Christians to renew their faith and
commit themselves to righteousness and the defence
of what is good.

Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection was a
renewal of hope for all Christians. It enjoined us
to always sacrifice for the good of our community,
our society and our world.

As we celebrate Easter let us use it as a period
of self-examination and do away with aspects of
our lives that go against Christian principles and
betray the role Jesus played in washing away our
sins.

We can only impact positively on our society if we
do away with negative habits such as treachery,
duplicity, stealing, deception and betrayal, which
have unfortunately become the order of the day.

Our prayer is that this Easter will be a time for
personal renewal and commitment, fulfilling the
Calling that Christ has placed on each of our
lives.

Let us use this period to sow seeds of unity, love
and compassion to all who come into our lives –
friends and foes, allies and opponents.

We call on all holiday-goers to endeavour to
celebrate the holiday period in moderation and not
allow immoral actions to mar a period meant for
reflection and renewal of life.
