After the ship had docked again after the procession on the Rhine on Corpus Christi yesterday, the participants went up to the church of St Clemens (‘Schifferkirche’) to conclude the celebrations. Participants included the Indian (Catholic) community (with colourful umbrellas), the Ghanaian community, and (in green uniform) a local shooting fraternity.
A brass band played ‘Down by the riverside’ and ‘Oh when the saints’ in Dixieland style during the walk to the church.

On Corpus Christi today, the traditional boat procession ‘Mülheimer Gottestracht’ took place on the Rhine along the borders of the formerly independent city of Mülheim (Cologne). The main ship ‘RheinFantasie’ was accompanied by various ships, yachts, canoes, the water police and the DLRG (German Maritime Search and Rescue Association). The procession went from the Schifferkirche (boatmen's church) of St. Clemens (at Mülheim bridge) first to Deutz bridge, then to Cologne-Stammheim and back to St. Clemens.

Bundesweit haben Christen am Karfreitag des Leids und Sterbens Jesu gedacht. Katholiken und Protestanten riefen zu mehr Menschlichkeit auf - auch mit Blick auf die Kriege in der Ukraine und in Nahost.
