What does a Permanent Deacon do on a Monday morning after a weekend of homilies, baptisms, masses, communion calls, prayers?? You go to work. Just a reminder that one of the geniuses of the Permanent Diaconate is the men are called from life; from families, from careers, from neighborhoods. And we are called to not tuck away our office, our ordination, our diaconate, our call to serve because we go to work, and cut the grass, and love our family, and run errand to the store. Nope, ministry continues because for the Permanent Deacon it is not just what we do, it is more who we are!
Off to work!
