St. Patrick | 4 From the Rev. Deacon Miguel Robles What does it mean to be a deacon? [Continued from last week] The word "Deaconate" is derived from "Deacon" in Greek, which means "servant." It is the first level or degree of the Sacrament of order in the Catholic Church, before the priesthood and the episcopate. It is important to note that according to Canon Code 1031 there are two types of deacons, without changing their functions. There are temporary deacons, who, as their name implies, their service is in passing before receiving the order of the priesthood. There are also permanent deacons, also as their name indicates, they will always remain in their condition of deacons. But, let's discuss permanent deacons, these are men who can be celibate and before receiving the order of deaconate they must be at least 25 years old; as well as those married in the sacrament of marriage, they must necessarily be at least 35 years old at the time of their ordination (CC 1031s2). The preparation to be a permanent deacon is defined by the diocese to which the aspirant remains, but always in accordance with the provisions of Canon Code 1032s3. My experience to meet this requirement was six years of training, instructed according to the curricula agreed between the Diocese of Laredo and the University of St. Thomas in . The figure of the permanent Deacon can be confused as a priest and he is not, or as a dressed altar boy, which he is not. He is a Reverend, Permanent Deacon, prepared by his diocese, to serve Christ in his neighbor, with the homeless, the sick, the deprived of liberty, the adults confined to retirement homes, his , Most Reverend James Anthony Tamayo, to the community, to his Church and to serve and support in the parish of his Diocese to which he has been assigned. Pope Francis has repeatedly referred to the figure of the permanent deacon, the most recent being that of May 5 of this sobering 2020, stating it as follows: “Deacons are not second-rate priests. They are part of the clergy and live their vocation as a family and with the family. They are dedicated to the service of the poor who bear in themselves the face of the suffering Christ. They are the guardians of service in the Church. Let us pray that deacons, faithful to the service of the word and of the poor, will be a life-giving sign for the whole Church.” Today in our diocese of Laredo we have 29 active permanent deacons and aware of the need to serve their Church ("since the harvest is great and the workers are few"), another 22 are being prepared, of which 12 are In their fifth year of preparation and with God's favor, they will soon be serving our community. We are proud that two of them belong to this Saint Patrick parish, our brothers in Christ Jesus, Steve Landin and Ramiro Garza, who have heard and heeded the call of God. There are 10 more aspirants in preparation, who will enter their second year, for whom we must also pray so that they conclude in due course, this purpose to the call of Jesus Christ. As Pope Francis says, “we live as a family and with the family”, you are my family and here at home my wife Luz, and my children, Paula, Miguel and Adrián. I conclude by sharing with you the most revealing and committed part that I experienced on the day of my ordination on October 4, 2014 in our Cathedral of San Agustín; our Bishop James Tamayo, put the Gospel Book in my hands and told me: “learn it, practice it and teach it”. Dear brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus, I am here to serve you.

¿Qué significa ser diácono? [continuación de la semana pasada] La palabra "Diaconado" es derivado de "Diacono" en griego, que significa “servidor." Es el primer nivel o grado del Sacramento del orden en la iglesia católica, antes del sacerdocio y el episcopado. Es importante hacer notar que según el Código Canónico 1031 existen dos tipos de diáconos, sin variar sus funciones. Existen los diáconos transitorios, que como su nombre lo indica, su servicio es de paso antes de recibir la orden del sacerdocio. También existen los diáconos permanentes, también como su nombre lo indica, permanecerán siempre en su condición de diáconos. Pero, refirámonos a los diáconos permanentes, estos son hombres que pueden ser, célibes y antes de recibir el orden de diaconado deben de tener al menos 25 años, así como los casados en el sacramento del matrimonio, deberán tener necesariamente al momento de su ordenación al menos 35 años (CC 1031s2). La preparación para ser diacono permanente, está definida por la diócesis a la que permanezca el aspirante, pero siempre conforme a lo dispuesto en el Código Canónico 1032s3. Mi experiencia para cumplir este requisito, fue de seis años de formación, instruida de acuerdo a los planes de estudios convenidos entre la Diócesis de Laredo y la Universidad de St. Thomas en Houston. Referirse a la figura del Diacono permanente no es precisamente fácil para hacerlo, ya que se le puede confundir como sacerdote y no lo es, o como un monaguillo revestido, que tampoco lo es. Es un Reverendo, Diacono Permanente, preparado por su diócesis, para servir a Cristo en el prójimo, con los desamparados, los enfermos, los privados de la libertad, los adultos confinados a casas de retiro, a su Obispo, Reverendísimo Jaime Antonio Tamayo, a la comunidad, a su Iglesia y servir y apoyar en la parroquia de su Diócesis a la que haya sido asignado. El Papa Francisco en varias ocasiones se ha referido a la figura del diacono permanente, teniendo como la más reciente la del 5 de mayo de este aleccionador 2020, manifestándola de la siguiente manera: “Los diáconos no son sacerdotes de segunda categoría. Forman parte del clero y viven su vocación en familia y con la familia. Están dedicados al servicio de los pobres que llevan en sí mismos el rostro de Cristo sufriente. Son los guardianes del servicio en la Iglesia. Recemos para que los diáconos, fieles al servicio de la palabra y de los pobres, sean un signo vivificante para toda la Iglesia”. Hoy en nuestra diócesis de Laredo contamos con 29 diáconos permanentes activos y consiente de la necesidad que hay de servir a su Iglesia (“ya que la cosecha es mucha y los trabajadores pocos” ) se están preparando a otros 22 de los cuales 12 se encuentran en su quinto año de preparación y con el favor de Dios, pronto estarán sirviendo a nuestra comunidad, pudiendo sentirnos orgullosos de que dos de ellos pertenecen a esta parroquia de San Patricio , nuestros hermanos en Cristo Jesús, Steve Landín y Ramiro Garza, quienes han escuchado y atendido el llamado de Dios; y hay 10 aspirantes más en preparación, que entraran a su segundo año, por los que también debemos de orar para que concluyan en su momento, este propósito al llamado de Cristo Jesús. Como dice el Papa Francisco, “vivimos en familia y con la familia”, mi familia son ustedes y aquí en casa mi esposa Luz, y mis hijos, Paula, Miguel y Adrián. Concluyo compartiéndoles la parte más reveladora y de compromiso que viví el día de mi ordenación el 4 de octubre del 2014 en nuestra Catedral de San Agustín; nuestro Obispo Jaime Tamayo, puso en mis manos el Evangeliario Fr. Ricardo y me Pineda, dijo: “apréndelo, CPM practícalo y enséñalo”. Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo Jesús, estoy para servirles.
