Patriarch Theodore of Alexandria performed the Resurrection Service along with two clergymen and the church staff at the Cathedral of the Annunciation of the Theotokos in Alexandria.
He sent the Resurrection message to the faithful from the empty church. “Our hearts, full of hope, cry out, ‘Christ is risen from the dead,'” the Patriarch of Alexandria said.
He added, “I wish all the best to all Greeks, Cypriots, Greeks of Egypt and Egyptian brothers and sisters,” said Patriarch Theodore. After the celebration of the Service of the Resurrection on Holy and Great Saturday, he stressed, “It was as if the faithful were with me today during the celebration of the Resurrection. Christ is risen!”
