He repeatedly stressed the Christian values of love, generosity and duty and the traditional African values of the extended family as counterforces to the temptations to materialism, corruption, neglect of the poor and the aged, breakdowns in family life, and the "anti-life mentality" of abortion and contraception.

But he warned some 100,000 young people in Onitsha not to succumb to the lures of "selfindulgence and escapism" or other temptations. of material wealth. "Be generous," he said. "The one who gives sparingly will reap sparingly. The one who gives with generosity will reap an abundant harvest." At his first Mass in Nigeria, Pope John Paul emphasised the Church's task of evangelisation, or bringing the message of the gospel to all. But he also highlighted the link between Christianity and authentic human development of all of society. "For example," he said, 'the Church has promoted schooling, which in its turn has fostered all-round development: social, cultural, political and economic...action for peace and justice is in fact an important part of witnessing to the Gospel...and of building a s ociety marked with integrity, unity, justice and peace."

CLERGY TURN TO CHURCH W ASHINGTON (NC) — In the past year 64 f ormer Episcopal (U.S. Anglican) priests have I begun the petition process for admission to the C atholic priesthood, said Bishop Bernard F. Law, the Catholic Church's delegate for such a dmissions.
Court rules against the subway display of an anti-abortion poster TORONTO (NC) — The Ontario S upreme Court has ruled against allowing the Right to Life Association, of Toronto, to display a poster opposing abortion on the Toronto subways. The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) had rejected the advertisement after pro-abortion groups protested. The controversial poster shows a sad toy soldier with a tear rolling down its cheek. The caption reads: "Some toys will have less children to play with this year. Some 65,000 aborted children less." The figure of 65,000 was taken from the 1979 data of Statistics Canada, which conducts a census every four years.

Temporary take-over NEW PRIEST at the monastery
The new Marist assistant priest at Belmont-Redcliffe parish comes to a suburban parish posting after nearly 30 years in seminary lecturing and formation.
For the first time in its 80-year history the Redemptorist monastery at North Perth recently was without a Redemptorist and visitors would have been excused for thinking there had been a Benedictine takeover. For the Redemptorists it was an opportunity to flee the scene and do some intensive planning for the forthcoming three years a nd for a team of New Norcia Benedictines it was an opportunity to sample the round Masses of and church duties that take place at the North Perth church.

BONN, West Germany (NC) — In the land of Martin Luther, the number of Catholics surpassed the number of Lutherans at the e nd of 1980, according to statistics released recently in Bonn by t he Evangelical (Lutheran) Church of West Germany. The statistics showed that Lutherans were 42 per cent of West Germany's population of more than 61 million in 1980, while Catholics were 43 per cent. The previous major statistical survey of religions in West Germany showed Lutherans at 51 per cent of the population in 1 960. A Lutheran spokesman attributed the decrease to several factors including: a drop in the birth rate among Protestant families and t he arrival in West Germany of many immigrants from Catholic countries. "This definitely does not signify a decrease in faith and religious sentiment," said Hartmut I.oewe, vice president of the chancery of the Evangelical Church. "At liturgical services we have registered an increase in participation of 22 per cent," he said, adding that the number of Lutheran pastors and theology s tudents has also increased in West Germany in recent years.

The bishop had helped distribute communion at the 7pm Mass and was returning to the rectory with the collection money when he was accosted by a gunman who demanded the money. The incident occurred shortly before the end of the Mass. The man then fled in a l ight-coloured sedan driven by a woman with blond hair. "I don't think it's wise to disclose the amount," the bishop said. "It tempts others. We don't want anyone else to get any ideas of maybe imitating this ridiculous person. "He was bold as could be," the bishop said of the thief. He said that the man had been hanging around the church "for a good hour," motioning people in and out of a side door of the church and directing traffic in the parking lot. Thus, the thief was seen by a number of parishioners, the bishop added. And although the thief "had it w ell-timed," the bishop did not think the man was a former parishioner or anyone from the area, for no one apparently recognised the well-dressed and well-spoken stranger. He said that stronglooking ushers now accompany the priest who takes the money back to the presbytery.

Comedy "The Odd Angry Shot" is a tough, biting comedy which combines action and pathos with humour to tell the story of a group of Australian regular soldiers on a year's tour of duty in Vietnam in the late 1960s. They are the men of Patrol 22 of the Special Air Service (SAS) Regiment. highly -trained professionals with the motto: "Who dares wins". The Odd Angry Shot follows them through their year in Vietnam, a year during which they cope with the frustrations and closeness of camp life, punctuated by patrols into the jungle to fire "the odd angry shot".

While conspicuous natural resources remain unused there are huge numbers of people who are unemployed or underemployed and countless multitudes of people suffering from hunger.
The international organisations have an enormous part to play in this area.

They must also be more highly operative with regard to plans for action jointly decided on, that is to say, they must be more effective in carrying them out.
