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.
