Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Christ is Risen! Alleluia!
This glorious season of Easter reminds us that light will always triumph over darkness, hope over despair, and life over death. The resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ is the ultimate gift of love, the assurance that God walks with us, even through the most difficult times.
At CIDJAP, we are reminded daily that our mission to serve humanity is deeply rooted in the message of Easter—bringing peace, justice and dignity to all. As we celebrate this season, let us renew our commitment to be agents of hope in our homes, communities and places of work.
May the power of the Resurrection strengthen your faith, fill your heart with joy, and inspire you to continue doing good. In the face of hardship, let us be reminded that Easter is proof that nothing is impossible with God.
Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful and grace-filled Easter.
Msgr. Prof. Obiora Ike
Founding Director,
Catholic Institute for Development, Justice and Peace (CIDJAP)
