Will Prelate Imkamp be the Next Archbishop of Berlin?

[Augstine Baker]

(Berlin, kreuz.net)The Director of the Shrine Maria Vesperbild in the Diocese of Augsburg, Wilhelm Imkamp (59), is the most qualified candidate to succeed the former Archbishop of Berlin.

This was according to 'Bild' today in its Berlin edition. The paper gave no source for its alleged information.

Cardinal Georg Sterzinsky of Berlin will reach his 75th birthday this coming February and must submit his resignation. The boulevard magazine informs us that he is weary of his office.

They have profiled the Catholic Prelate Imkamp as "well connected in the Vatican".

I have heard good things over all, however I would like to know more about his views on the Liturgy.

They were talking about him as a replacement for Bishop Mixa earlier, and he says Latin NO and is a "friend" of Msgr Ganschwein the Pope's Secretary

Did you talk about another Cardinal instead of +Mahony? Anyway, it's nice that Cardinal Mahony is retired and replaced by someone who's at least a neo-con.
