ZAGREB: CATHOLIC CHURCH PRIMATE CELEBRATES EASTER MASS

ZAGREB, March 31 (Hina) - Jesus Christ's resurrection has been a constituent, significant, and determining element of Christianity since its inception, the head of the Catholic Church of Croatia, Archbishop Josip Bozanic, said celebrating mass at the Zagreb cathedral on Easter Sunday. #L# "Without Jesus' resurrection there would be no Christianity," said Archbishop Bozanic. "The resurrected Christ stands before us as an invitation not to worry because people negatively judge the lives of those who don't put their personal interests first, who wear themselves out for the benefit of others, especially the poorest and the neediest, but to allow ourselves to be strengthened and encouraged by the only valuable judgement, and that is God's judgenent," said Bozanic. He called on the faithful never to lose faith in the victory of good. Bozanic celebrated Easter mass with some 30 priests and apostolic nuncio to Croatia, Msgr Giulio Einaudi. (hina) ha
