Everything is a Question of "Tradition"




Tagespiegel: "At your departure Mass in the Cathedral of Cologne there were more than thirty servers employed, but not a single girl."

Archbishop Woelki: "In the Cathedral there are no female altar servers. That is a tradition there."

Tagespiegel: "Will there also be no more altar girls at St. Hedwig's in Berlin?

Archbishop Woelki: "No worry.  They will stay.  There is another tradition here."

From an interview of the new Archbishop Rainer Maria Woelki of Berlin with the Berlin paper "Tagesspiegel'.
