To avoid gas shortages in the cold season, Germany needs to reduce its energy use by about 20%. In view of the set goal, the Diocese of Trier announced that it was forced to close churches (by the way, in the spring of 2022 it also announced a gradual transition to more sustainable energy, namely a moratorium on the planning and construction of fossil fuel heating systems in its own buildings).
Therefore, the representatives of the Diocese of Trier hope that the faithful will understand such measures, as they did during the Covid-pandemic. Nowadays, it is also a demonstration of solidarity with Ukraine.
