According to the Alumni Office, the text of Dr. Seyed Mansour Gatamiri's message is as follows:

I congratulate all the dear Christian compatriots, especially the Christian graduates of the university, on the arrival of the birth of Jesus Christ (PBUH) and the beginning of 2023 AD.

Jesus Christ is the prophet of friendship and brotherhood and the evangelist of peace and justice throughout the world. I congratulate all followers of divine religions and lovers of peace, friendship, thoughtfulness, wisdom and justice on the blessed birthday of this great prophet.

I hope that this Easter, which is decorated with the name of God's chosen prophet, will be a beginning full of joy and happiness for all the Christians of the world, along with peace and success, health and achieving more and more successes.

I wish everyone a year full of blessings and health from God.
