LONDON, Sept 11 — Churchgoers gave thanks for the 70-year reign of Queen Elizabeth II at services around Britain today as the country comes to terms with the death of the deeply religious monarch.
“She was 96 and she deserves her rest.” Priest Andrew Nunn remembered in his sermon how the queen came in secret in 2006 to record her annual Christmas Day broadcast there. But the queen took on the mantle of sovereign and remained true to her duties for the next seven decades.A portrait of the Queen is displayed outside a church in Melbourne on September 10, 2022, following the passing of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II. — AFP picThe Church of England has issued special material for churches to supplement their usual services and a prayer for worshippers giving thanks for the queen’s “faith and dedication to duty”.
“Forever Queen! Thank you for everything you’ve done for UK and the rest of the world,” read one entry.“But she has always been part of our lives,” said the 66-year-old.
