I AM thrilled that the world's fastest man, Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt, has been invited to address a Vatican conference on religious liberty.
As a Catholic, Bolt is known for making the sign of the cross before racing. He also bears the middle name Saint Leo.
I applaud Usain for using his God-given talents to help promote a modern conversation about art, faith and athletic achievement.
