For many, deacons are a bit of a mystery. Like bishops and priests, deacons are members of the clergy who receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders, not to the priesthood, but unto sacred service. What Is a Permanent Deacon? helps us understand the history behind the deaconate as well as the duties and importance of this sacred role. This service can best be described as “a gift of self that wills the good of the other for the sake of the other.”
