German Diocese Invites Lutherans To Pick Up Communion without Faith

Lutherans in the Diocese of Osnabrück, Germany, are officially invited to pick up Communion at Novus Ordo Eucharists.

Communion for Protestants is "a great opening" and "an important step that will allow the churches to grow closer together", claimed Osnabrück Cathedral Canon Reinhard Molitor in an interview with the diocesan newspaper Aus.sicht.

Molitor: "The diocese of Osnabrück was the first German diocese to issue an official invitation to Eucharistic hospitality in June 2023. Rottenburg-Stuttgart is also working on such an agreement. Other dioceses are hesitating. I think it could apply to the whole Church".

The term "Eucharistic hospitality" implies that Communion in the Novus Ordo is a kind of snack which is distributed out of "courtesy".

The canon mentioned various occasions such as funerals, school services, first communions, school camps where his Snack Communion could be distributed.

The Protestant preacher Günter Baum stressed that the sacrilege happens in broad daylight: "We are officially invited, without leaving our Protestant understanding of the Lord's Supper [= denial of the Real Presence of Christ in the Sacrament] at the door."

The diocese of Osnabrück is in total collapse and is artificially kept alive by the compulsory church tax. The bishop is payed by the state.

Maybe the German Catholics have a Lutheran understanding of the Eucharist?

This is sacrilege. But do they believe in the Holy Mass?
