The Prime Minister has thanked churches and Christian communities for the “incredible” work they do of their local communities.
In his Easter message, Rishi Sunak spoke in regards to the “Christian values of compassion, charity and self-sacrifice”.
He also paid tribute to Christians “supporting those in need and demonstrating what it means to like thy neighbour”.
He said that Easter was a “probability to pause and reflect” and spend “precious” time with the family, but he also reflected on those suffering due to their Christian faith around the globe.
“Many I do know can even be pondering of those in pain and suffering around the globe and Christians persecuted due to their faith who’re unable to have fun Easter freely,” he said.
