"During the Eucharistic celebration of 11 October, the Ecumenical Patriarch   
   Bartholomew I will address Benedict XVI and all those participating in the   
   Mass for the opening of the Year of Faith".    
   "At the beginning of their work, the Synod Fathers will choose the members   
   of the 'commission of the message'. The commission is made up of twelve   
   members. The Holy Father has appointed the president and secretary   
   (respectively, Archbishop Claudio   
   Maria Celli, president of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications,   
   and Archbishop Luis Antonio G. Tagle of Manila, Philippines) and

   will appoint a further two members, while the remaining eight members are to   
   be elected by the Synod   
   Fathers".    
   "The methodology of the Synod, which was modified by Benedict XVI in 2005,   
   remains substantially unchanged. Each Synod Father will have five minutes to   
   speak during the General Congregations, but during the open debates in the   
   afternoon sessions   
   (from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.) they will have no more than three minutes, so as to   
   stimulate greater participation in the discussions. Speeches by fraternal   
   delegates, experts and auditors must not exceed four minutes".
