It Has Launched! No images? Click here Vol. 9: No. 5 It has Launched! On November 1, 2021, the OPC CDM's, The Reformed Deacon, made its way into the podcast world. While we realize that The Reformed Deacon monthly podcast may not be at the top of everyone's must-listen list, we hope it will be near the top of yours! At this point there must be thousands of podcasts available on hundreds of podcast players. But, in all of the offerings you probably won't find one that is specifically created for the reformed deacon...that is, until now. Even though it's designed to speak to deacons, we hope that The Reformed Deacon will also benefit those of you who are not deacons. As believers, we are all called to be servants, (little d) deacons. In listening to the podcast, you may learn more about what your board of deacons is doing—and you may learn how you could better aid them in their service to the church. How can you listen? If you are already a podcast listener, you should be able to find The Reformed Deacon on your own podcast player. If you are not a current podcast listener, simply go to the website: thereformeddeacon.org where you can instantly listen to the first episode. The site has program notes from each show as well as a listing of multiple podcast players where it is available—if that's your preference. Go listen now, if you can, and let us know what you think. Your feedback will help us improve with each episode. Editor: David P. Nakhla Trish Duggan, Communications Coordinator, CDM The Mercy Minute, a quarterly newsletter of the Committee on Diaconal Ministries, is intended to keep OPC deacons informed and encouraged in their labors. It may include opportunities for networking or training, describe the work that a local diaconate or presbytery diaconal committee is engaged in, or bring attention to a need in the OPC. |
