Retirement for Deacons? Not Usually!

Posted on May 24, 2010 by Deacon Bob

I ran across a posting on Deacon Greg Kandra’s blog (www.blog.beliefnet.com/deaconsbench/) about Deacon Lou Weitzel, 90 years of age, from the diocese of Lansing, Michigan, who is going strong.

I hope to have the same energy Deacon Lou has when I am that age. It is a wonderful vocation.

God bless him.
