THE main Opposition People's National Congress Reform (PNCR) has urged Guyanese to reflect on the message of Easter and begin the task of reconciliation as a nation.

"As Jesus told us in the pages of the Holy Bible, with love in our hearts and a willingness to forgive, every thing is possible.

"Let us consider this Easter as a time to begin the process of healing the deep wounds that all of us might have in one way or another helped to inflict upon our country", the party said in an Easter message.

"As our kites take to the sky let us strengthen our determination to be united and to play our part towards the well being of our beloved Guyana", it added.

In extending Easter greetings to all Guyanese, the PNCR said, "We join the members of the Christian community in the commemoration of the supreme sacrifice made by Jesus Christ and the celebration of His resurrection that offers hope of salvation to all people."

"As we raise our kites and watch them soar into the boundless blue sky let us remember the message of Easter that has remained the same over two thousand years.

"The message from the life, works and words of Jesus Christ which tells us to do good in the face of evil, to love each other as God loves us and to forgive so that we may be forgiven", it urged.

It wished Guyanese a happy, safe and peaceful Eastertide.
