Today is day 145 and we are studying The Sacrament of Ordination.

144. What is the work of deacons?

Serving Christ under their bishops, deacons care for those in need, assist in public worship, and instruct both young and old in the catechism. (Deuteronomy 15:7–11; Psalm 119:1–8; Luke 12:35–40; Acts 6:1–7; 1 Timothy 3:8–13)

We will conclude today with the Prayer for the Ordination of a Deacons on page 475 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
