In the Ordination Rite of Deacons, the Bishop prays the following prayer. "Oh God, who taught your ministers of the Church to seek not to be served but to serve their brothers and sisters". That prayer solidifies the ministry of service as a major pillar in the ministry of all deacons. With that service objective in mind, with the help of the Holy Spirit, Deacon Sam Costantino founded the Deacons' Table during the latter part of 2013 and began serving dinners to brothers and sisters in need of a nourishing meal beginning in 2014.
