Deacons: Serving You…Since A.D. 33!

In the last four decades, hundreds of men have proclaimed the same Gospel joy with their own lives, lives of loving service that have in turn changed countless other lives for the better.  Called by Christ to minister to the people of the Archdiocese of St. Louis, our Deacons are preaching God’s Word to us, praying fervently for us, and caring compassionately for us each and every day. And each year, many men discern that same call and begin the process of formation that, God willing, leads to ordination as Deacons. 

You can help support these men as they discern God’s will in their lives.  Deacon formation in the Archdiocese relies heavily on the support of the Annual Deacon Collection.
Please look in your monthly packet of envelopes
for the "Permanent Diaconate" envelope on top to donate!

The strength of the Deacon Formation program in the Archdiocese greatly depends on your support.  Your sacrificial gift can make a tremendous difference in the vocation journey of our future deacons.
