Moscow, April 22, Interfax – Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia has sent an Easter message to the heads of other Christian Churches.

The Patriarch wished joy, peace, good health and plentiful assistance from God to their service.
The message is addressed to Pope Benedict XVI, Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II, Archbishop of Canterbury Rowen Williams, head of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland Archbishop Kari Makinen, Chairman of the Council of the Evangelical Church of Germany Nikolaus Schneider and others.
