 MINISTRY OF THE DEACON

The deacon exercises the ministry of the Word by proclaiming the gospel at Mass and by preaching the homily, if granted that faculty by the bishop.  Additionally, he provides catechetical instruction and religious formation for those preparing for the reception of the sacraments.

The deacon practices the ministry of the Liturgy by assisting the priest at Mass, conducting other liturgical actions such as leading the Liturgy of the Hours, and leading services for exposition and benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.  The deacon exercises the ministry of Charity and Justice by actively participating in the Spiritual and Corporal Works of Mercy.
