Amata’s Statement for Easter

Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Uifa’atali Amata released the following Easter statement:

“Every year, Christian believers all over the world celebrate a risen Savior, the blessed hope God sent us from Heaven, and the special joy that we will see our loved ones again who have left this life behind.

“This Easter, some of our dear families mourn the loss of a loved one. After two years, Covid-19 virus reached our shores, and our people are facing difficult circumstances. Easter is a wonderful reminder that our heartaches are temporary, as God does great things for his people.

“Last year at this time, we were slowly seeing families reunited with repatriation flights. This year, we have federal medical support during these weeks of battling the virus, as we are mindful of the most vulnerable among us.

“May God bless our islands this Resurrection Sunday.”
