Congratulations !!! to the Eleven on their achievement of long-term friendship and for their courage.  Although given there is clarity of thinking among some German bishops, maybe they will support the Eleven who have put Köln on the map.  

The Vatican seems to have jettisoned the teaching that women may not image the Christ, and now maybe do agree that the baptism of women is valid and women are fully members of Christ.  I would propose that no one is able to adequately image or represent the High Priest and the Bridegroom and there is only one such -- Jesus himself.  Both women and men have the capacity to 'Do this in memory of me.'   It may be that there has been some enlightenment of those in power as both the Vatican and the US bishops have the NAB/NABRE versions on their websites where the Greek is correctly translated  as "in the presence of Christ" (2 Co 2:10).  Not in the person of.  A big disappointment to some who want to practice clericalism.
