I posted this quote a year or so ago, but I offer it again, as it is from Deacon Sean Curtan from the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis, whom I was privileged to meet several years ago when I attended the profession of my friend Mike into the Secular Franciscan Order.
As an ordained deacon I’m called never to forget that the person in front of me is the most important person at the time and I’m called to lead them to Jesus Christ.” — Sean Curtan, SFO
