Summer Workshop Series
Offered by The Institute for the
Diaconate at the Josephinum
|
A deacon is forever. The National
Directory has placed increased emphasis on continuing
education in recent years. The Institute for
the Formation and Ministry of the Diaconate at the
Pontifical College Josephinum has been chartered
to provide multiple opportunities for deacons to
consider, learn, and reflect upon their critical
role in the modern Church. To this end, two three-day
workshops designed especially for permanent deacons
will be offered in summer 2009. Join us for these
opportunities to enhance, advance, and re-animate
your pre-ordination formation, already received and
lived out, in all of its dimensions.
