UCharles III kunye nenkosikazi yakhe uCamilla bathweswa isithsaba eLondon, bemenza ukumkani wamashumi amane kwimbali yaseBritane. Umsitho wokuthweswa isithsaba kunye nokuthanjiswa wenzeke eWestminster Abbey. Uthweso-zithsaba lwangaphambili lwenzeka kwiminyaka engamashumi asixhenxe eyadlulayo, nge-2 kaJuni ka-1953, xa umama kaCharles, uKumkanikazi u-Elizabeth II, wafumana isithsaba saseBritane kwakwindawo enye.
Isiganeko esiphambili somkhosi - ukuthanjiswa kokumkani ngeoli engcwele kwenziwa nguJustin Welby, uMbhishophu omkhulu waseCanterbury. Wathambisa intloko kaCharles, izandla kunye nesifuba ngeoli engcwaliswe yi-Orthodox Jerusalem Patriarch Theophilus kwi-Holy Sepulcher (apha), egxininisa uxhulumaniso kunye neTestamente Elidala lokuthanjiswa kobukhosi, kwaye wabeka isithsaba entloko yokumkani. Ngexesha lokuthanjiswa, ikwayala yaseByzantium eyayiqhutywa nguAlexander Lingas, umfundisi-ntsapho womculo waseByzantium, yenza iNdumiso 71, yaye emva kokuthweswa isithsaba, uCharles III wasikelelwa nguBhishophu Omkhulu wamaOthodoki waseTyatira naseGreat Britain uNikitas.
Umsitho uqulathe umqondiso omninzi wobuKristu kunye nemiyalezo malunga nobume bamandla. Nazi ezinye zazo:
Umngcelele owawuseWestminster Abbey wahlangatyezwa nguBhishophu Omkhulu waseCanterbury waza wafikelela ekungeneni kwebandla, ukhatshwa kukufundwa kweNdumiso 122 (121) ethi: “Masiye endlwini kaYehova”, omyalezo wayo ophambili ikukudala uxolo: inkosi entsha iza ngoxolo nokuseka uxolo .
UKumkani wenza isifungo kwiBhayibhile yeKing James waza wanikwa iBhayibhile ukuze amkhumbuze ngomthetho kaThixo neVangeli njengomgaqo wobomi norhulumente wookumkani abangamaKristu. Eguqe phambi kwesibingelelo, wenza lo mthandazo ulandelayo, owabethelela imbono yamaKristu ngorhulumente njengenkonzo ebantwini, kungekhona ugonyamelo kubo: “UThixo onemfesane nenceba, oNyana wakhe engathunyelwanga ukuba alungiselelwe, kodwa ukukhonza, ukunika. Ndibabale ukuba ndifumane kwinkonzo yaKho inkululeko egqibeleleyo, nakule nkululeko yokwazi inyaniso yaKho. Ndiphe ukuba ndibe yintsikelelo kubo bonke abantwana baKho, balo lonke ukholo nolweyiseko, ukuze sikunye sifumane iindlela zobulali, sikhokelwe kuzo zonke iindlela zoxolo; ngoYesu Kristu iNkosi yethu. Amen.”
Omnye umntwana wabulisa ukumkani ngala mazwi: “Wena ke, mhlekazi, njengabantwana bobukumkani bukaThixo, siyakubulisa egameni loKumkani wookumkani”, waphendula wathi: “Egameni lakhe nangokomzekelo wakhe andizanga kuye. kulungiselelwani, kodwa kukukhonza” .
Eyona mpahla ibalulekileyo yokumkani yayiyingqukuva yegolide enomnqamlezo oxabisekileyo, nto leyo efanekisela iNgqobhoko nendima yokumkani waseBritani ekukhuseleni ukholo lwamaKristu. Ukumkani naye wafumana iintonga ezimbini zegolide: eyokuqala inehobe kwincam yayo, efanekisela uMoya oyiNgcwele - imbonakalo yenkolelo yokuba igunya lokumkani lisikelelwe nguThixo kwaye kufuneka lisetyenziswe ngokuhambelana nemithetho yakhe. Intonga yehobe ngumfuziselo wegunya lomoya kwaye ikwabizwa ngokuba “yintonga yobulungisa nenceba.” Intonga yobukhosi yomnye umlawuli inomnqamlezo yaye ifuzisela amandla ehlabathi, angamaKristu. Zontathu iiregalia, kunye neCrown of St. Edward, ziye zasetyenziswa ekuthwesweni kokumkani waseBritane ukususela ngo-1661.
Lo kumkani unikwe nekrele lombuso, ekufumaneni kwakhe umthandazo wabahlolokazi neenkedama – kwakhona njengomqondiso wokuba uxolo lelona xabiso liphakamileyo amele alwele umlawuli ngamnye ongumKristu, kwaye imfazwe ishiya ukufa phakathi kwayo.
Ngokuthweswa kwakhe isithsaba, uCharles III waba yintloko yeCawa yaseTshetshi. Ukususela ngenkulungwane ye-16, xa iCawa yaseTshetshi yaqhawula ubudlelwane neCawa yamaRoma Katolika yaza yabhengezwa njengonqulo lwelizwe, ookumkani baseBritani baqalisa ukuyilawula, ngaloo ndlela becima ilungelo likaPopu lokungenelela kubomi bobukhosi. Ubunkokeli beCawa yaseTshetshi busetyenziswa nguBhishophu Omkhulu waseCanterbury. UCharles III wanikwa nesihloko esithi "Umgcini wokholo".
