This inquiry meeting will be held at 6 p.m. at St. Edward Church in Texarkana. Catholic men in good standing with the Church, who will be 35 years old by 2028, are invited to attend this inquiry meeting about the new permanent diaconate formation class being formed. An overview of the five-year diaconate formation program, which is scheduled to begin in the fall of 2023, will be explained at the meeting.
It will be presented in English and Spanish, in separate rooms, at the same location and time. If you are discerning a vocation to the permanent diaconate you should attend this meeting or one of the other inquiry meetings scheduled across the Diocese of Little Rock this fall.
