The Roots of the Diaconate Explained . . .

There is a growing theological-pastoral interest in ministerial service and ministries in the Church, with a particular emphasis on the diaconal ministry and role that deacons have in the Church. The Compendium on the Diaconate: A Resource for the Formation, Ministry, and Life of Permanent Deacons explores how bishops, along with their helpers, the priests and deacons, have taken up the service of the community and are exercising the divinely established ecclesiastical ministry on different levels.

This resource is a collection of fundamental texts for understanding the roots of the diaconate, its ministerial specificity, and its potential for development in today’s world as well as for the Church’s pastoral care. Order your volume today.
