- "Deacons from Dallas (U.S.A.), Argentina, Uruguay and Cuba met with deacons and lay ministers from Peru for a week long conference at the end of April and beginning of May [2007]. The purpose was to enrich and encourage deacons in their office and ministry and to promote the 'permanent diaconate' in the Diocese of Peru". "The Diocese of Peru aims to encourage and promote the 'permanent diaconate' as a significant and central ministry. The Diocese of Dallas, through its Bishop, the Rt. Rev. James Stanton, has played an important role in developing the permanent diaconate , and this has been a major source of inspiration and encouragement to Bishop William [Godfrey]". Includes photo.

- "Thus pamphlet was authored by one member of the diaconate and reviewed and edited by another". -- p. [12].
- "The word 'deacon' comes from the Greek 'diakonia'. meaning 'servant' -- especially in the context of one who serves at table. Even today, the diaconate is often called the 'servant ministry', and it is the ideal of service that motivates the men and women in our own time who have sought ordination to this order of ministry. Perhaps, the most important understanding of the ministry of the deacon is the understanding that the deacon is to model the ministry of Christ -- to reach out to the poor, the hungry, the lonely, the helpless, the sick, and the disenfranchised" (p. 2-3). "As the Church reclaims the ancient understanding of the order of deacons, so we must differentiate between permanent or vocational deacons and those intending to be ordained presbyter, who are typically referred to as transitional deacons. Those who are called to the vocational diaconate seek to remain in that order. Their ministry is seen as separate and equal to the priest and their spiritual leadership is a pastoral ministry seeking to serve others and to help others serve" (p. 3-4). "A common way to describe the work of a deacon as distinct from the work of a presbyter is to say that the presbyter serves as the bridge between the Church and God -- a ministry of teaching and leading, while the deacon is the bridge between the Church and the world -- a ministry of servanthood and enabling" (p. 5).
