His Excellency, to the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan K-Zh.K. Tokaev
Your Excellency, dear Kassym-Jomart Kemelevich!
I heartily congratulate you on the national holiday - Independence Day of the Republic of Kazakhstan!
On this day in 1991, a new page was opened in the history of our country - sovereignty and independence were proclaimed.
Over the past years, Kazakhstan has achieved success in building a democratic society, developing the social sphere and creating an effective economic system. The Republic gained authority in face of the world community as a model of peacefulness, interethnic and interreligious harmony. The multinational and multi-confessional people of Kazakhstan is one big family, united, hardened by years of trials in the last century and knowing the joy of accomplishments in the 21st century.
In one of your speeches, you said the following words: “Preserving interethnic harmony is the task of not only state bodies, but of the whole society, of every citizen. We all share the same responsibility for stability and prosperity in our country.”
God bless, that the joint efforts of state, public and religious organizations be successful in the further development of our common home - blessed Kazakhstan.
On this solemn day, I sincerely wish you, dear Kassym-Zhomart Kemelevich, good health, strength and blessed success in your service to your native Kazakhstan.
With deep respect and best wishes,
HEAD OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCH OF KAZAKHSTAN
METROPOLITAN OF ASTANA AND KAZAKHSTAN
