In case anyone was looking for the verbiage on #Deacons & the #Sacraments in the updated #BookOfDiscipline, here it is. Para. 328, bottom of p.256.

Regarding the #Disciplinary questions:

There are 16 questions from the #BookOfDiscipline that I have to answer. Our conference added two extra questions, bringing the total to 18.

Currently, I have responses to 5 of the 18 questions, which is about 30% of the way done. Gotta get moving!

The total number of tasks doubled to 27, not including the 16 questions I have to answer from the #BookOfDiscipline (which need to be around 2 pg per question).
It has been quite the endeavor as I stare at what's being asked of me. It's kind of scary.
