Francis Church: Cardinal Morphs into Carnival
Cardinal Rainer Maria Woelki, 63, found a solution: "As Cardinal I am practically Crown Prince. I can easily take over that position," he said.
Woelki put his promise into practice and performed, on January 14, with the Trifolium at a visit in St. Josef parish, Braunsfeld.
According to Bild.de, Woelki was visibly moved: "To be a prince for once! Already as a little boy I dreamed about this. It's the greatest thing for me to be a carnival prince once in my life!"
