BISHOPS MUST PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL: POPE
YAOUNDÃ, Cameroon: MARCH 18, 2009. Pope Benedict
XVI is encouraging bishops to work together to proclaim
the Gospel to everyone, keeping a
paternal closeness with their priests, mentoring the
laity and caring for the poor. The Pope said this in an
address to the bishops of Cameroon at Christ the
King Church in Yaounda.He urged
his listeners to evangelize in their diocesan
communities, "for there are countless people still
waiting to hear the message of hope and love that will
enable them to obtain the glorious liberty of the
children of God. The proclamation of the Gospel is the
particular task of the Bishop," he noted, and in order
to "strengthen and purify their faith, the faithful need
to hear the words of their bishop, the catechist par
excellence.”

COACHES MAY BE BARRED FROM PRAYING WITH PLAYERS
New York: To Coach Louis Thompson, praying
with his Lincoln County High School football team is as
important as leading them to winning seasons maybe more
important. "Every day when we finish practice, we take a
knee, bow our heads and say the Lord's Prayer every day.
We don't miss a day," Thompson said. "Along with the
Lord's Prayer at practice, we have a silent prayer
before each game where I tell them to pray for
themselves and their teammates.'' But a case making its
way to the U.S. Supreme Court could prevent Thompson and
other coaches of public schools from praying with their
teams, even if the players initiate the prayer on their
own.

A
CHILD MINISTERS DURING SUNDAY SERVICE
 Miami: The first time Terry Durham preached,
he was not in front of a group of people or even inside
a church. He was in the bathroom of his grand-mother's
home in Fort Lauderdale, delivering his first sermon
surrounded by tooth brushes, soap and towels. He was 6
years old. Five years later, Terry is an ordained
minister who preaches almost every Sunday at True Gospel
Deliverance Ministry, a 20-seat nondenominational
storefront church that his grandmother founded in 2000.
