The Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III

The Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III in Westminster Abbey was an historic occasion and was a hugely important moment for the Catholic community. For the first time in over 400 years, a Catholic Archbishop took part in a Coronation. Cardinal Vincent Nichols was not only present but offered a blessing to the newly crowned King during the service.

The Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster reflects on the significance of this moment and the various Christian and ecumenical elements of the ancient liturgical ceremony in the Vatican News, and you can read the full story here.
