Roles of Priests and Deacons in the Catholic Church
Roles of Priests and Deacons in the Catholic Church
This week, Years 5 and 6 have been learning about the roles of priests and deacons in the Catholic Church, particularly how their roles are similar and different. They were lucky enough to have Kwame, a trainee deacon from St John The Baptist parish, visit. He spoke clearly about the process of becoming a deacon and what his role entailed. The children listened beautifully, asked lots of interesting questions and scribbled down lots of notes ready to write up what they have learnt in their next RE lesson.
