King’s speech 2023: Charles III addresses public on Christmas Day
E many of the festivals of the great religions of the world are celebrated with a special meal a chance for family and friends to come together across Generations the act of sharing food adding to conviviality and togetherness for some faith will be uppermost in their hearts for others it
Will be the joy of fellowship and the giving of presents it is also a time when we remember those who are no longer with us and think also of those whose work of caring for others continues even on this special day this care and compassion we show to
Others is one of the themes of the Christmas story especially when Mary and Joseph were offered shelter in their hour of need by strangers as they waited for Jesus to be born over this past year my heart has been warmed by countless examples of the imaginative ways in in which people are
Caring for one another going the extra mile to help those around them simply because they know it is the right thing to do at work and at home within and across communities my wife and I were delighted when hundreds of Representatives of that selfless Army of people volunteers who
Served their communities in so many ways and with such distinction were able to join us in Westminster rabby for the coronation earlier this year they are an essential backbone of our society their presence meant so much to us both and emphasized the meaning of Coronation
Itself above all a call to all of us to serve one another to love and care for all service also lies at the heart of the Christmas story the birth of Jesus who came to serve the whole world showing us by his own example how to love our neighbor as
Ourselves throughout the year my family have witnessed how people of all ages are making a difference to their communities this is all the more important at a time of real hardship for many when we need to build on existing ways to support others less fortunate than ourselves the way because out of
God’s Providence we are blessed with much and it is incumbent on us to use this wisely however service to others is but one way of honoring the whole of creation which after all is a manifestation of the Divine this is a belief shared by all religions to care for this creation is a
Responsibility owned by people of all faiths and of none we care for the Earth for the sake of our children’s children during my lifetime I’ve been so pleased to see a growing awareness of how we must protect the Earth and our natural world as the one home which we all
Share I find great inspiration now from the way so many people recognize this as does the Christmas story which tells us that Angels brought the message of Hope first to Shepherds these were people who lived simply amongst others of God’s creatures those close to Nature were privileged that
Night and at a time of increasingly tragic conflict around the world I pray that we can also do all in our power to protect each each other the words of Jesus seem more than ever relevant do to others as you would have them do to you such values are Universal drawing
Together our abrahamic family of religions and other belief systems across the Commonwealth and wider World they remind us to imagine ourselves in the shoes of our neighbors and to seek their good as we would our own so on this Christmas day my heart and my thanks go to all who are serving
One another all who are caring for our common home and all who see and seek the good of others not least the friend we do not yet know in this way we bring out the best in ourselves I wish you a Christmas of peace on Earth and Good Will to all today and
Always was sheers watch their flocks by night all Seated on the ground the angel of the Lord came down and Glory sh around fear not set for Mighty dread at se their TR the tidings of great joy I bring to you and all to you in D town this day is born of
David’s life ofor who is Christ the lord and this shall be the the you shall F to Human oh mean wed in sing BS and in a m Oh Glory to God And Good see

Multi cultural Britain … seems to be the future of the country .
A bit of colour in his tie (russet) would brighten his face. The shirt looks a bit washed out too. Great speech though.
God bless the King
He is such a great speaker. I know he’s not my king, but I do enjoy hearing him deliver messages.
Beautiful closing music. Opening vocalist is just fantastic.
❤❤❤
dedecus monarchia est. homines rebellare ac libertatem tuam captare. ire republica
And they say the great replacement is a myth 😂
I'm not religious really, but do find the christmas story a great teacher of lessons and The King delivered a warm, heartfelt, genuine message, while avoiding too much talk of family, so as not to cause any more friction and everything he said, was spot on.
Beautiful
We recap a mother giving birth was sent into a stable and not given bed and assistance in the house ! Well he is not his mother is he ? The speach was a big let down hopefully he snuffs it soon and we can move on
😂😂😂😂 Tampon Charlie lacked care and compassion. Sitting on a £B estate and yet wants more taxpayers money. Sooner the Royals are gone, the better. #NotMyKing #DWTC
beautiful speech and beautiful performance from the choir! ❤
Beautiful
KC is a fantastic public speaker

Blessings & Salutations .

Who cares
Excellent
I wonder what Sadiq Khan thought of this. It was certainly uplifting for us of a certain faith
I would posit that the inclusivity of faiths in his speech may have been missed by some.
God Save the King
shudder
god damn the kîng
