Join us for one of our Upcoming Events:
St. Francis of Assisi: Model Deacon
6:30 p.m. (in church) Evening Prayer
7 p.m. (in PAC) Dinner & Talk
Many people assume that St. Francis was a priest, but he was actually a deacon, and a model one at that. He demonstrated what the true vocation of deacon is: a Christ-like figure who makes himself the servant of all for the sake of God. In St. Francis’ own words he defines the diaconate vocation, “we must be simple, humble, pure. We should never desire to be over others. Instead, we ought to be servants who are submissive to every human being for God’s sake. The Spirit of the Lord will rest on all who live in this way and preserve in it to the end. He will permanently dwell in them. They will be the Father’s children who do his work.” Deacon Gene Leger will speak on St. Francis’ vocation as permanent deacon and the role of this special vocation within the Church today.
