LUTHERAN DEACONESS ASSOCIATION

Check us out on Twitter


The mission of the Lutheran Deaconess Association is rooted in diakonia as we prepare and support women for ministries of service in the church and world, and advance the church's diaconal mission. Diakonia, the Greek word for service, is a calling of the whole people of God. As Jesus took a towel and washed the feet of the disciples, God calls each of us to respond with loving service in a world needing God’s healing touch. God calls every Christian to diakonia -- not just deaconesses. In fact, one of the main reasons deaconesses exist is to assist the church in its diaconal mission. We accomplish this by encouraging and providing resources to you.
