Munich (dpa) - With a view to the Advent season in the Corona crisis, Cardinal Reinhard Marx calls for vigilance and attention for one another.

"We look to the elderly and to everyone who lives alone," said the Archbishop of Munich and Freising in a pastoral word on the first Advent.

«We see how many people worry about their future.

We see how we and others can be hurt in body and soul. "

Marx calls on believers to a "network of prayer".

This also includes "giving signs of togetherness - perhaps through a letter or email, a phone call, through contacts via social media."

Despite the pandemic, there are many opportunities this year to fill Christian customs with life.

"Advent and Christmas are not canceled."
