Downsizing in Germany?

Germany was the home of Pope Benedict and apparently many of the bishops of Germany will be having a hard time adjusting to Pope Francis.  Take the matter of where the pope and the bishops live.  Francis does not live in the Apostolic Palace, he lives in an ordinary room at the Santa Marta guesthouse in Rome.  The Archbishop of Munich is typical of many German bishops in that his palace was recently remodeled at a cost of $2,700,000.  A quote from Francis: "Be close to the people and live as you preach. Always be with your flock, do not succumb to careerism and ask yourselves whether you are truly living as you preach." 

Cars are another area where the bishops may have to downsize from their Mercedes.  Francis uses an old car and has commented about cars, "Cars are necessary. But take a more humble one. Think of how many children die of hunger and dedicate the savings to them."
