About this sermon
Presidents and kings, princes and prime ministers, gathered today for the state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II. Thousands of mourners lined the streets while millions around the world watched the scenes from London. In his remarks, the Archbishop of Canterbury remembered the queen's long commitment to serving others. Archbishop Justin Welby says, "People of loving service are rare in any walk of life. Leaders of loving service are still rarer. But in all cases, those who serve will be loved and remembered when those who cling to power and privileges are long forgotten." It was the first state funeral in Britain since 1965, when Winston Churchill passed away. Affiliate Reporter for the Associated Press, Philip Crowther, takes us through the many remarkable scenes from the day and what stood out the most to him. Crowther shares what the mood is like in the country right now and whether it is known how many people either lined the procession route or watched the service in the UK and the rest of the world. He tells us what security was like. Crowther explains what will happen next in the UK and whether there is any update on when there might be a coronation for King Charles III. He fills us in on whether there might be another queen of England anytime soon. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
