18.During Lent of this Holy Year, I intend to send out Missionaries of Mercy. They will be a sign of the Church’s maternal solicitude for the People of God, enabling them to enter the profound richness of this mystery so fundamental to the faith. There will be priests to whom I will grant the authority to pardon even those sins reserved to the Holy See, so that the breadth of their mandate as confessors will be even clearer. They will be, above all, living signs of the Father’s readiness to welcome those in search of his pardon.
18. Katika Kwaresima ya Mwaka huu Mtakatifu ninayo nia ya kuwatuma Wamisionari wa Huruma. Watakuwa ishara ya hamasa ya kimama ya Kanisa kwa Taifa la Mungu, wakiwezeshwa kuingia kwa undani katika utajiri wa fumbo hili msingi kwa Imani. Watakuwa ni mapadre ambao watapewa mamlaka ya kuondolea hata dhambi ambazo kwa kawaida huondolewa na Kiti cha Kitume pekee, ili upana wa utume wao uonekane wazi. Watakuwa, hasa, ishara hai ya namna Baba anavyowapokea wale wanaotafuta msamaha wake.
