Please pray for those who will be commissioned as deacons in the Protestant Church of
Central Germany and become a part of the Community of Deacons. These are people
from different caring or educational professions who have completed an additional
two years training at the diaconical institution in Nienstedt. As deacons they have a
ministry of social work and service, in parishes, health and social service centres and
other institutions.
