Fresh off her remarkable televised 'crisis' speech regarding the Coronavirus situation in the United Kingdom, the Commonwealth and the world, Queen Elizabeth addressed the situation again through her Easter message.
Asking the public to stay strong and keep safe in light of the global pandemic, Queen Elizabeth offered some reassuring words: “But Easter isn’t canceled, indeed, we need Easter as much as ever. The discovery of the risen Christ on the first Easter day gave his followers new hope and fresh purpose and we can all take heart from this. We know that coronavirus will not overcome us. As dark as death can be — particularly for those suffering with grief — light and life are greater. May the living flame of the Easter hope be a steady guide as we face the future. I wish everyone of all faiths and denominations a blessed Easter,” the Queen concluded.
