The President of the Republic of Macedonia, Dr. Gjorge Ivanov, sent a congratulation message to all Christian believers who celebrate Christmas according to the Gregorian calendar.

Respected,

Let me congratulate you the greatest Christian holiday of all, the Birth of Christ, Christmas, and wish you good health, happiness and joy during the holiday.

Christmas is a holiday when our hearts and our homes are blessed with love and warmth, joy and light, hope and bestowal, peace and beauty. Christ’s birth paved the path to salvation and eternal life, and, hence, Christmas as a celebration of God’s love is a milestone for humanity and substantial support of our faith and spirituality.

May this holiday today bring us together and confirm our shared commitment to nurture and respect religious diversity and religious peculiarities as a priority of our society for a better tomorrow for today’s and future generations.

Be blessed!
Have a Happy Holiday!

Sincerely,
Dr. Gjorge Ivanov
