Their claim was “No 2G: Church for All”.
The privately initiated group gathered at dusk with candles and lanterns, sang the German Advent hymn “Macht hoch die Tür” and prayed the rosary.

Co-initiator Moritz Scholtysik explains in a press release: “This decision is disastrous. Especially in a time when we experience fear, loneliness and isolation, the common celebration of Holy Mass is more important than ever.” “
Another co-initiator, Ludwig Brühl, says, “A great many faithful are excluded from celebrating Holy Mass. This creates even more division in the Christian community.”
Giovanni Maria Olivari, also co-initiator, asks Berlin Archbishop Heiner Koch “to make the celebration of the sacraments accessible to everyone again.”
