Deacon Guillermo "Memo" Rodriguez
September 27, 2022
"It is time for our Church to acknowledge the role of countless women serving the people of God in positions of ministry and leadership. Moreover, it is time for our Church to acknowledge that this is the work of the Holy Spirit calling women to serve. Discerning Deacons is a leading voice in this process, and I am honored and delighted to walk and work alongside my fellow Christians and my fellow servants in this journey."
Deacon Guillermo "Memo" Rodriguez is a Facilitator of Diaconate Formation for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles

“I’m not sure I’m really called to be a deacon, but even the chance to have a platform in front of a parish during mass would be a revelation for folks, especially people who experience gender discrimination. The Church would start to live out a truer version of universality.”

“Women have been the caregivers and great support of most churches. Why? Because we deal with the personhood of the ordinary. The everyday matters of living. To me, that is what a deacon is. She extends the Church to the common community: visiting the sick and dying, helping parents with family problems, attending as a lector at Mass, burying the dead, and comforting families.”

“It is time for the Church to heed the Spirit’s voice, recognizing women’s call to the diaconate and allow the Spirit to restore and renew the Body of Christ so that it may fully live into its identity of missionary discipleship.”
