Charles chooses multi-faith theme in first Christmas broadcast as UK King

London: King Charles III chose a multi-faith message for his first-ever Christmas Day broadcast on Sunday as British monarch, referencing the work of churches, synagogues, mosques, temples, and gurdwaras across the UK and wishing everyone a Christmas filled with “peace, happiness and everlasting light”.

The 74-year-old King, who had recorded the message



earlier this month at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle, focussed on the unifying theme of light overcoming darkness celebrated across all faiths.

The traditional broadcast was also packed with heartfelt tributes to the life and legacy of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away aged 96 in September.
