President Trump: “Rejoice in Knowing That Christ Has Risen”

President Trump and the First Lady issued an Easter Sunday message to the nation earlier today.

“Today, let us take a little extra time to pray for the strength of our country and our people, and ask that God hold all Americans in the palm of His hand.  Together, let us rejoice in knowing that Christ has risen,” the president said.

President Trump’s message:

Melania and I join millions of Christians celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the gift of eternal life this Easter.  Although this year’s observance of Easter comes during a somber time for our Nation, we hope all of you are filled with the joy, love, and hope that marks this holiest of days.

As our Nation has faced the unique challenges posed by the coronavirus during the past few weeks, we have turned to God for guidance, comfort, and hope.  Throughout this difficult period, we have witnessed the core tenets of Christianity—love, compassion, and kindness—reflected in the many acts of courage, generosity, and caring of the American people.  Our country’s citizens have taken to heart the words of 1 Peter 4:10: “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.”  Countless Americans have selflessly answered the calls for help in their communities and have performed extraordinary acts to help their neighbors in times of need.  Healthcare workers and medical professionals have worked tirelessly to heal the sick, and thousands of volunteers, first responders, critical workers, and businesses have contributed their time and resources to help defeat this virus.

No matter the circumstances, we will always celebrate Easter as a time of rejuvenation, rebirth, and a renewed sense of purpose and faith.  The coronavirus will not stop Easter.  Even in the darkest hours, God’s abundant love and mercy are unwavering.  The light of Christ will always triumph over the trials and tribulations we face because He has defeated death.  Today, let us take a little extra time to pray for the strength of our country and our people, and ask that God hold all Americans in the palm of His hand.  Together, let us rejoice in knowing that Christ has risen.

We send our best wishes for a blessed and joyous Easter.
