CWN Editor's Note: In his first Christmas message to the people of the United Kingdom, King Charles focused on caring for the sick and the poor, saying: “That is the heart of the Nativity story and we can hear its beat in the belief of all the great faiths.”

King Charles, in a break from tradition, delivered his Christmas message from Firtzrovia Chapel, which was once the chapel of Middlesex Hospital. In his remarks he offered thanks to the medical personnel who have cared for him in his battle with cancer.
