Our Metropolis's first-ever Deacons Retreat is scheduled for September 28th-30th, at the Diakonia Retreat Center. This Retreat is meant for both Deacons and their Proistamenoi to come together, so that each may gain the most beneficial knowledge concerning the valuable service of the Diaconate to the sacramental life of the Church. 

The timeframe of the Retreat will be identical to the structure of our June Clergy Retreat, with Deacons and their Proistamenoi arriving at the D.R.C. on mid-afternoon Tuesday, and departing after lunch on Thursday.

More information will follow as the date approaches. Clergy, email the Metropolis Chancellor, Very Rev. Fr. George Tsahakis (at chancellor@atlmetropolis.org) regarding your thoughts and ideas for the Retreat.

We hope that this Retreat will prove a valuable continuing education opportunity for our coworkers in the Holy Diaconate, as they seek to assist in the work of the Lord's Vineyard.
