And unfortunately, those same folks usually view someone serving as a permanent deacon as someone who has failed to become a priest, someone stuck in their apprenticeship.<br /><br />I hope that in the future we can come to a much better theological understanding of the historic ministries of the bishops, priests and deacons. I find what we have today often extremely lacking.Brother Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06333089314994730330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-51826595699364676642011-05-05T15:33:39.006-04:002011-05-05T15:33:39.006-04:00I am a little dismayed about the Press announcemen...I am a little dismayed about the Press announcement. While I agree the Bishop's need education, mentoring, etc. - and let's get some people who know how to head up justice filled corporations in there to mentor - I see a lot of priests who need the same. And, seeing my partner has always been at struggling, small congregations, and has just been downgraded to 10 hours, losing her health insurance, benefits, etc. and we will now have to sell our house and begin looking again, I have a very negative response to this. Pay attention to the least among you, Bishops.Hutchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14017047075501507818noreply@blogger.com
