Diaconate Vocations with Deacon Dean Johnson

It’s another laughter-filled episode of Talking Catholic, as co-hosts Jen Mauro and Mike Walsh welcome a new guest to the show: Deacon Dean Johnson, who serves in Church of the Holy Family, Sewell.   First, Deacon Dean shares what he learned during his time in the diaconate program – both educationally and spiritually. “The more I got to know about the Church, the more I fell in love with her,” he says.   He goes on to share how the diaconate is a way of life – one full of joy, patience, listening and understanding – whether he’s at the altar, teaching in a classroom or jamming on his guitar.   And of course, in-between the vocation talk, Mike and Jen throw some curveballs. Mike asks for some fashion advice, while Jen asks Deacon Dean to read aloud from his recent column in the Catholic Star Herald: https://catholicstarherald.org/a-call-to-diaconate-can-be-a-whisper-or-shout/ If you or someone you know is considering the diaconate, learn more at https://camdendeacon.org/ Listen to Talking Catholic everywhere podcasts can be found, at https://talking.catholicstarherald.org/talking-catholic, or catch us on Domestic Church Media radio (https://domesticchurchmedia.org) Sundays at 11 AM or Mondays at 4 PM.   Follow us on...
