Faces and Places of Ministry

Deaconesses serve in an amazing variety of ministries. There is no “one” deaconess job. But the heart of all deaconess ministries is faith and service in Christ.

Our video Faith and Service in Christ tells the story of four of the more than 700 women prepared for deaconess ministry by the Lutheran Deaconess Association. These four women – Ruth, Addie, Cherryll and April – serve God’s hurting people in different ways, but the heart of their ministry, of all deaconess ministry, is the same – Faith and Service in Christ.
