"The spiritual and sacramental life is an extraordinary treasure, given to us for the good of the people entrusted to us.

The authenticity of their witness requires that there be no dichotomy between what they teach and the way they live each day."

STORYLINE
Pope Benedict XVI on Wednesday met with Cameroon President Paul Biya, in Yaounde, on day two of his week-long visit to the African continent - his first as pontiff.
Benedict was greeted at the presidential palace by Biya and First Lady of Cameroon Chantal Biya.
Biya is one of Africa's longest-ruling strongmen, who has been in power since 1982 and recently was accused by the Amnesty International rights organisation of seeking to crush political opposition.
No details of Wednesday's meeting at the presidential palace were immediately given.
Later, Benedict was was driven to Christ the King Church to speak to Cameroon's 31 bishops and set down their mission.
Benedict said that while the Catholic church in Africa is the fastest growing in the world, it faces competition from increasingly popular evangelical movements and "the growing influence of superstitious forms of religion."
The German-born pope also said that the exuberant local African rites should not 'obstruct' the liturgy of the Mass.
He also spoke of the needs of the poor.
Benedict said he worried about the impact of modernity and secularisation on the traditional African family, telling the bishops to promote the understanding that marriage is indissoluble.
The meeting with the bishops had long been planned for the cathedral in Yaounde, but construction there has not been finished, amid allegations in the local media that the funds set aside were embezzled by clergy.
A Vatican spokesman said he was aware of reports that the funds were missing but had no comment.
Benedict arrived on Tuesday to a rapturous welcome from state officials and locals.
Just hours before touching down in Cameroon on Monday, he said that distribution of condoms is not the answer to fighting the AIDS/HIV epidemic and that, "on the contrary, it increases the problem."
The spokesman said Benedict wanted to stress that a reliance on condoms distracted from the need for proper education in sexual conduct.
