Operation Coronation reaches celebrities

Ant and Dec received copies of the tract 'God Save The King'

Coronation Day was unforgettable for the nation, but it will also be remembered by some as the day they met with the King of Kings.

On the weekend of 6 May, hundreds of Christians joined Royal fans around Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and elsewhere in central London handing out gospels and Christian literature. Thousands of tracts and the coronation booklet God Save The King – co-authored by Roger Carswell and Alan Marsden – found their way into the hands of ordinary people, as well as celebrities such as TV hosts Ant and Dec and other guests at the Coronation.

Teams from Crown Christian Heritage Trust, wearing blue t-shirts bearing ‘The King is Coming!’ also spent two days handing out gospels and leaflets. They report that copies of John’s Gospel and Romans were distributed to thousands of people, including media crews, security teams – ‘and even the Archbishop of Canterbury’!
