After several weeks we have now been informed through an external person that the cross in the City Church, is not an actual animal carcass, but an object that is covered with "plastic skin".

We therefore distance ourselves from the misinformation that the cross in the City Church, would be an actual animal carcass. Since we have not received any further information on the nature of the material on request, we have so far assumed that this object would be a real carcass.

Our petition runs until February. If you turn to Pastor Simonsen, our parish or our diocese, we kindly ask you for a friendly but definite tone. Please do not use any insults or threats! We emphasize that this is not desired by us.
We only wish and ask for the removal of this cross from the public interior of our church.

Thank you and God bless you for your efforts!

Neuer Titel: Pig Plastic carcass on the cross instead of corpus
Christ corpus | City Church Mönchengladbach Germany


Neuer Petitionstext: Since the end of September 2019 Father Christoph Simonsen exhibits a cross with a that looks like an animal carcass is fixed pig carcass, on it, headless with 4 limbs, instead of the holy Christ corpus in his office of the City Church Alter Markt Moenchengladbach (Germany).
The disfigured cross is publicly visible - just behind the Father's office chair and separated from the interior of the church only by a glass door.
This apparently highly blasphemous representation of the cross-suffering God and Lord Jesus Christ has already provoked uprising among many Catholics. Neither Father Simonsen nor the Diocese of Aachen spoke out against this cross representation - on the contrary, this representation was appreciated as an object of art that was "valuable and indispensable" and would lead to "deep and reflected discussions of faith" with visitors. Statements were rejected by all contacted persons.
The diocese refuses dialogue and our bishop even seeks to protect these representations under a special concept of art!!
The permission of public blasphemous works of art in our diocese must be stopped. We appeal to our bishop Dr. Helmut Dieser, to exercise his ministry and to remove at once this shameful art and insult to God!
Therefore we ask for your signature on openpetition or by post (documents & address here: christus-rex.de)
Thank you and God bless you for your efforts!!


Neue Begründung: This abominable portrayal of the cross is deeply offense to God and to many faithful Catholics, as well as a spiritual threat for visitors of the city church in monchengladbach to lose faith.
A cross with a disfigured pig skull on the cross plastic carcass is a great, unprecedented, blasphemy and does not belong in the holy interior of a church. That is why we ask the Bishop of Aachen, Dr. Helmut Dieser, to let this “abomination that causes desolation“ not be recognized as art, but to be removed from our church!
