The Queen's faith

There are already hundreds of tributes to the Queen pouring in from around the world. People pay tribute to her kindness, dignity, humility, and integrity, and her surprising sense of humour. But the most common word is faithfulness. Seventy years ago she promised that her whole life would be dedicated to the service of this nation. And for seventy years she kept that promise, faithfully. No-one is perfect, not even her, but she did her duty and kept her word until the very end.

On the death of Her Majesty the Queen

By now I'm sure most of us will have heard the news of the death of the Queen. Details about services and events will follow over the coming days, but for now I wanted to write a few words to us as a church to help us respond to the news.

First of all, I think we can be glad for the Queen's sake. She spoke often of her faith, and of Jesus Christ as the King she served. I trust therefore that she is 'with Christ, which is better by far'. Her long journey is complete, and she is with her saviour. Let us be thankful for her.
