NGUMC Deacons How will we will know when we have enough deacons? When all the needs of the marginalized and vulnerable are met; When gathering the gifts of the church and taking them to the world, And gathering the needs of the world and bringing them to the church, has become a habit; When Deacons, going back and forth, have worn down the boundary lines that we use to keep church and world separated."; When Deacons, leading the baptized in and out, Have beaten down a path between the altar and the gutter So that everyone will see the link between the Blood in our chalices and the blood in our streets; When all people respond to the challenge to live, Not in the love of power but in the power of love.
