CWN Editor's Note: Bishop Georg Bätzing, the president of the German episcopal conference, vowed to work for the ordination of women as “a matter of justice,” as he spoke on May 4 at Evangelical Church Day.
Bishop Bätzing also assured members of the Evangelical Church that they would be welcomed to receive Communion in Catholic churches in Germany, despite Vatican resistance to that policy.
