DEACONESSES SERVE...TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY!

new students

Deaconesses wash the feet of the world. With towel and basin, deaconesses share food, clothing, medicine, love, and the gospel with those in need.


Every church can see service as central to its identity and its calling as God’s people. The LDA trains and supports deaconesses. It also encourages the whole people of God in their diaconal life. It leads the church in recognizing its call to diakonia. And the LDA provides resources to support you.

Six new deaconess students attended the weeklong Student Seminar in August. Learn more about the education and formation process, here...
