Pope will recall all Vatican diplomats to discuss Year of Faith

CWN - October 17, 2012

Pope Benedict XVI plans to call all the Vatican's diplomatic representatives to Rome in June 2013 for an in-depth discussion of their response to the Year of Faith.

Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Secretary of State, disclosed the Pope's plans at an October 17 meeting of the Synod of Bishops. He said that all apostolic nuncios, papal delegates, and permanent observers to international organizations will be asked to join in "an exchange of experiences to deepen the feeling of mission for the pontifical representatives" during the Year of Faith.
