It deeply troubles me when I see a timetable in a parish: 'From such a time to such a time\u00e2?\u009d. And then? There is no open door, no priest, no deacon, no layperson to receive people... This is not good.\u00e2?\u009d<\/p>\n<p>Pope Francis said that meekness is one of the virtues of deacons, people who do not try to imitate the priests, but must be discreet, patient, understanding and never scream.<\/p>\n<p>POPE FRANCIS<br \/>\n'A disciple of Jesus cannot take a road other than that of the Master. If he wants to proclaim him, he must imitate him. Like St. Paul, he must strive to become a servant. In other words, if evangelizing is the mission entrusted at baptism to each Christian, serving is the way that mission is carried out. It is the only way to be a disciple of Jesus.\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After the Mass, Pope Francis wanted to personally greet some deacons and their wives.
