THE SERBIAN ORTHODOX
BISHOP OF AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND

Beloved monastics, clergy, all sons and daughters, the faithful spiritual children of our Holy Church in Australia and New Zealand: now, as all things are filled with light, both heaven and earth and beneath the earth; and therefore as all creation celebrates Christ's Resurrection in which we are confirmed (Paschal Canon—Song 3), from a paternal heart overflowing with joy We greet all of you on this Great Feast of Feasts with the heartfelt Christian greeting:

CHRIST IS RISEN!
