At the core of its mission is a clear conviction, diaconal ministry flows from sacramental identity and an interior life rooted in Christ the Servant. Each issue seeks to nourish that interior life through faithful theological reflection, spiritual formation, and practical pastoral insight, helping deacons integrate their ministries of Word, Sacrament, and Charity into a unified way of life.
 

Firmly grounded in the magisterium and attentive to the lived experience of deacons and their families, The Deacon bridges doctrine and daily ministry. It serves not only deacons, but also bishops, priests, and formation leaders who seek a reliable and ecclesially faithful articulation of the diaconate today.
 

By remaining singularly focused on the diaconate, The Deacon strengthens communion within the Church and supports deacons in living their vocation as a sustained gift of self, shaped by prayer, fidelity, and ongoing conversion in the image of Christ the Servant.
