| All most of you, I am now a deacon at our church, Warehouse 242. This Sunday, I will serve communion for the first time as deacon.
We have five stations of two leaders (one elder and one deacon) when we serve. People come up in groups of 12 and we serve each of them individually. Then we pray for the group of 12, alternating between deacon and elder praying. Each station usually serves about five to six groups of 12 (or so) people.
I do not take this lightly and neither does our church. Please pray for me as I serve - any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. We have seen God move mightily during different communions and it is just an inspiring and incredible way to serve Him.

| It was AWESOME! God moved and I saw tenderness and gratitude at work from Him. I think I got blessed more than anybody else!  _________________ "Who among the gods is like you, O LORD ? Who is like you— majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?" Exodus 15:11

| I'll skip the part where I condemn those who elected a woman as a deacon to the fires of hell to say "congrats".
