On the whole...

...I think the Church/taxpayers relationship in Germany is a bad one...of course it does mean that the German Church is able to fund all sorts of projects in poor countries. But it also means that the Church has lavish funds fotr all sorts of offices and staff it doesn't really need...and it looks bloated, too rich, bureaucratic and lacking in energy and zeal...

There are some fine Catholics in Germany, and I'm enjoying meeting them.  But they don't much care for the Church/State bond as it has been established by history, and it's probably time for a fresh approach...

Perhaps the German Church could 'grant' aid or otherwise assist Schoenstatt England, at Kearsley, if it has not already done so.
