Exploring the Four Orders of Ministry

Exploring the Four Orders of Ministry

There are many gifts but one Spirit, and in the Episcopal Church there are many ministries and four orders: lay persons, bishops, priests, and deacons.

Visit the EDLA website for a  video presentation exploring  those four orders of ministry – their similarities and their differences.

The fourteen-minute presentation includes first-person stories of members of each of the four orders sharing how they live out their vocation in the world and is accompanied by a discussion guide for further conversation and exploration of what it means to live out our baptismal vows as members of the Episcopal Church.
