Rishi Sunak, the prime minister, who is a practising Hindu, will read Colossians from the Biblical book. The oaths, which haven’t altered in decades, will retain the Protestant vow, but Lambeth Palace said that the Archbishop of Canterbury would “contextualise” them.īeforehand, he will say that the Church of England will work to foster an atmosphere in which “people of all faiths and beliefs may live freely.”Īs a part of ancient service, peers from the Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, and Sikh communities will present the monarch with pieces of the coronation ceremony, such as bracelets, the ring, the robe, and the glove. “Our hope is that when the Archbishop urges everyone to join in, people everywhere, even if they’re watching alone at home on TV, will say it out loud-this a sense of a tremendous cry of solidarity for the King from across the country and throughout the world,” the spokesman added. So help me, God.”Ī spokesperson for Lambeth Palace, the archbishop’s office, stated, “The homage of the people is particularly exciting because that’s brand new.” The following will be written in the order of service, “All who so desire, in the Abbey and elsewhere, say together: I swear that I will pay true allegiance to Your Majesty, and to your heirs and successors according to law. Instead, people in the Abbey and people watching it at home will be asked to pay homage in what the Lambeth Palace described as a “chorus of millions.” This “homage of the people” has taken the place of the customary “homage of peers,” during which hereditary peers swore allegiance to the newly installed monarch.
People worldwide will be urged to cry out and swear loyalty to King Charles, involving the public in the event for the first time.
