Deaconess

The Deaconess Community of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) consists of theologically trained, professionally prepared women, called and consecrated to service by congregations and synods of the ELCA and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada. This community, which celebrates 125 years of servant ministry in 2009, is an outgrowth of the revival of the New Testament diaconate that began in Germany during the 19th century. "Compelled by the love of Christ and sustained by community, we devote our lives to proclaiming the Gospel through ministries of mercy and servant leadership."

This roster was established in 1993. As with the women in the Deaconess Community of the ELCA, these leaders serve in ministries at the intersection of church and world. They work to seek wholeness in the world and to help the people of God to live out the Gospel. They are committed to alerting the church to the needs of the world.
