Deacon Joseph DePage
Holy Cross Catholic Church, Santa Cruz, California
June 2, 2021

“In ministry, I have been blessed to know many excellent and Spirit-driven women in our parishes, social organizations and classrooms. More than once, I have thought, ‘Ah, now that person has a sense of diakonia!’ Just as the Church is richer for having deacons, the diaconate will be richer and more representative when we see the restoration of women to the Order.”

Deacon Joseph DePage is assigned to Holy Cross Catholic Church in Santa Cruz, California, in the Diocese of Monterey.

“I know that women are being called by the Holy Spirit and women are living diakonia in creative, ordinary ways today. Now, as a mother of a toddler girl, I want to discern with the Church on how to make way for her to discern her own future calling, should the Spirit call her.”

“If women were able to serve as deacons, it would magnify the grace and love of God and make it more widely available.”

“I was not raised Catholic but converted in my adult life. As a child, Mother Mary would appear to me often…I believe Mary appearing to me as a child who knew nothing about the Catholic Church was more than her wanting me to find Christ through the Church. I believe she came to me because I was meant to do more for the Church.”

Adult Faith Formation Leader, Chicago, IL
