ULM (dpa-AFX) – The “Südwest Presse” on the departure of Bedford-Strohm:
“It would be time for a distinguished woman. The EKD has strong female bishops. Annette Kurschus has made a name for herself as the bishop of Westphalia. Kirsten Fehrs, the bishop from Hamburg, is a courageous educator of sexual violence in church circles. Both stand for large church associations. That is a plus in times of crisis. After the southern German character, which will soon end, a fresh wind from the north would not be harmful. “/ Yyzz / DP / fba
