Cologne (dpa) - Actress Marie-Luise Marjan (80) is a big fan of Pope Francis.
“His picture is on my desk,” she said in an interview with the “Adventszeit-Magazin” of the church newspaper of the Archdiocese of Cologne.
«Francis is very human and I think he is definitely ready to reform a lot.
But he can't do it alone », said Marjan, who is a Protestant Christian.
"It will probably take several generations to implement a really necessary change in the church."
She considers ecumenism in the church to be very important. «Why shouldn't we, Protestant and Catholic Christians, go together and be strong in Christianity together? Why do you still have to split up? " The youth have long since discovered the importance of ecumenism. "Nobody understands why it should be a problem at a wedding that one is Protestant and one Catholic," said the "Helga Beimer" actress from the earlier ARD series "Lindenstrasse".
