(Before It's News)
Diaconate: Servant's Heart.
A servant’s heart, at the centre of ministry, a facilitator
Not a substitute for a priest, or a look alike impersonator
Not a prize for a lost priesthood, but a gift, a noble character
A visible expression of duty, a sacrament, a holy encounter
Proclaiming the Word, instructing the faithful, a listening brother
Practical, while gently prayerful, a diaconate heart, a servant forever.
