Diaconal Ministries Outreach
Diaconal Ministries advances its mission through a variety of outreach efforts that nurture the interior life and strengthen the Church’s servant-mission. Its retreats offer deacons, candidates, and the faithful opportunities for prayerful renewal, drawing them into deeper communion with Christ the Servant. Convocations provide larger gatherings for ongoing formation, fraternity, and reflection on the diaconal vocation within the life of the Church. Through accessible webinars, participants receive theological, spiritual, and pastoral enrichment in a format that reaches widely and supports diocesan formation needs. The ministry’s podcasts extend this formation even further, offering reflections and teaching grounded in diaconal spirituality to accompany listeners in their daily lives. Finally, regional conferences foster broader collaboration among dioceses, uniting deacons and formators in shared learning and strengthening the ecclesial understanding of diakonia. Together, these outreach efforts help form hearts rooted in Christ, so that service may flow as a genuine expression of the Gospel.
