Home | Society of St. Stephen Coptic Orthodox Deacons (original) (raw)

"Likewise deacons must be reverent,

not double-tongued, not given to much wine,
not greedy for money,
holding the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience.
But let these also first be tested;
then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless."
(1 Tim 3:8-10)
