Marking Christianity's most hopeful day, Pope Francis made an Easter Sunday plea for peace and dialogue in Ukraine and Syria, for an end to terrorist attacks against Christians in Nigeria and for more attention to the hungry and neediest close to home. Francis makes a pilgrimage to Jordan, the Palestinian territories and Israel next month, so on Easter he prayed that hopes sparked by the resumption of Mideast peace negotiations will be sustained. Nigerians marked Easter with heightened security against a spreading Islamic uprising, mourning the deaths of 75 bomb-blast victims and fearful of the fate of 85 abducted schoolgirls.
