Mother of God Church (Mutter Gottes Kirche)
The German Catholics of Covington attended St. Mary Parish on 5th Street from the time of its founding. However, as their numbers increased, the need for a separate parish began apparent. In 1841, the Reverend Ferdinand Kuhr, a native of Eslohe, Prussia, was appointed to organize the Covington Germans into a new congregation. A temporary chapel was set up in a building on Scott Street in 1841.
Mother of God was the second Catholic parish to be established in Northern Kentucky. In the spring of 1842, the congregation purchased a lot at the southwest corner of 6th and Washington. On this lot, a new church was constructed. Bishop Guy Chabrat of Louisville laid the cornerstone on April 14, 1842. The sacristy of the new church also served as a classroom for the parish school.
The German population rapidly increased throughout the pre-Civil War era in Covington. A number of new daughter parishes were formed from the territory of Mother of God to meet these needs of these newcomers. These new parishes included: St. John in the Lewisburg Neighborhood (1854), St. Joseph in the Helentown Neighborhood (1855), St. Aloysius in the Westside Neighborhood (1865), and St. Augustine in Central Covington (1870).
Despite the development of new German parishes in the city, Mother of God congregation continued to flourish. In 1870, Father Kuhr and the parishioners began planning for the construction of a new Mother of God Church. The old church building was demolished and ground was broken for the new Italian Renaissance Revival structure. The cornerstone of the new church was set in place on July 3, 1870 and the building was dedicated on September 10, 1871. The new Mother of God Church sported a large portico supported by four Corinthian columns, two large towers and a cupola. In 1875 a magnificent Koehnken Organ was installed in the church balcony.
In 1891, the congregation celebrated the Silver Jubilee of the establishment of the parish. In preparation for this event, the interior of the church was completely remodeled. Additions included five large murals depicting the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary by Johann Schmitt, new hand-carved wood altars by the Schroder Brothers of Cincinnati and two imported stained glass windows from Mayer & Company of Munich depicting the Assumption and the Immaculate Conception.

Heute, am 4. März 2018, fand eine rechte Demo „Mütter gegen Rechte“ in Bottrop statt. Dem Aufruf sind ca. 1200 Menschen gefolgt. Zuerst gab es Redebeiträge und dann eine Demonstration durch einen Teil der Innenstadt.
Die Veranstalter*innen waren bemüht, nach außen ein Bild von vielen teilnehmenden Frauen aufrecht zu erhalten, dies gelang nicht. Überwiegend Männer, wie in Kandel einen Tag zuvor, fanden sich am Versammlungsort ein.
Ich selbst habe Vertreter*innen von Pegida NRW, AfD und Die Rechte gesehen. Guido Reil und Matthias Helferich, beide AfD, Michael Brück und seine Trümmertruppe, Melanie Dittmer und Heidi Mund, um nur einige zu nennen.
Es gab auch Gegenprotest, ca. 300 Menschen brachten ihren Unmut lautstark zum Ausdruck.
Nach einigen Redebeiträgen (diese Mund ist ja schlimm …) verlief die Demo der „Mütter“ störungsfrei und an der Ausgangsstelle angekommen wurde die Demo von den Veranstalter*innen beendet.
Es gab eine kurzzeitige Festsetzung eines „Suffnazis“ wegen Beamtenbeleidigung. Bierdosen und Flaschen waren übrigens überall zu sehen. Spannende Auslegung des Versammlungsrechts.
In eigener Sache:
Das Berichten fand heute unter erschwerten Bedingungen statt. Ziemlich zu Beginn bin ich von einem Mensch mit Mikro bedrängt worden, der, obwohl ich zurückgewichen bin, nicht locker ließ. Diese Aktion dauerte so vier Minuten, die Polizei schaute zu.
Während der Latschdemo wurde ich körperlich angegangen und das direkt vor der Demo, wo fast nur Polizei zu sehen war. Ihm war das egal aber hier ist die Polizei direkt dazwischen gegangen und bat mich, etwas weiter vorne zu gehen. Klassiker, sind doch Foto-Journalisten die, die provozieren.
Daran, das sich alle überbieten meinen Namen zu rufen, habe ich mich gewöhnt. Lustig was der, der kurz zu mir kam um mir „Antifaschwuchtel“ zuzuflüstern...

"For water, for the deep where the high tide
Mutters to its hurt self, mutters and ebbs.
Waves wallow in their wash, go out and out,
Leave only the death-rattle of the crabs,
The beach increasing, its enormous snout
Sucking the ocean’s side.
This is the end of running on the waves;
We are poured out like water. Who will dance
The mast-lashed master of Leviathans
Up from this field of Quakers in their unstoned graves? "
--Stanza IV of "The Quaker Graveyard in Nantucket" by Robert Lowell
