Trivia

In 1802 Heinrich Maria Graf received a complaint because on the fourth Sunday of Advent he had forced several believers from Mörsch who had come to confess in the Trinity Church to be forcibly driven back from the confessional by the church servant in order to make room for the Frankenthal Catholics nor throw a believer who was already kneeling in the confessional out of the confessional through the clerk; When he complained, he was arrested on the gate . The outcome of the complaint is not known, but Bishop Joseph Ludwig Colmar asked the Worms commissioner to investigate the complaint.
