Clergy Day on November 3rd focused on the ministry of deacons. Here are some of the information sources cited there. Or, if a personal conversation is better, you can call [250-888-6376] or email me [weamer@bc.anglican.ca]
- YouTube - go to videos at Diakonia World Federation
- Diakonia is the federation of deacons from many church denominations, including Anglicans from Africa, Europe, Asia and North America. The website is https://www.diakonia-world.org
- Anglican Deacons Canada are deacons of our church across the country. The website is https://www.anglicandeacons.ca/

- Vancouver School of Theology Diploma in Anglican Diaconal Studies https://vst.edu/programs/dads/
- Centre for Christian Studies https://ccsonline.ca/
BTW... there is no direct link between deacons and this picture from East Sooke of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. I hope it brings you, like me, a sense of peace and encourages reflection.
