Yolanda Scott Brown, D.Min.
Former Parish Life Director, Blessed Sacrament Church, Hollywood, California
June 26, 2021
“The apostles recognized the pastoral needs of the Church and created the ministry of deacons. If the vocations of women as deacons were again recognized, as in the early centuries of the Church, the Body of Christ would be strengthened. Discerning Deacons is helping renew the Church by engaging Catholics in this discernment.”
Yolanda Scott Brown, D.Min., served as the Parish Life Director at Blessed Sacrament Church in Hollywood, California.

Seeing women deacons would serve as a vast, yet strikingly modest, step in the right direction to help loosen the unnecessary (can we say unjust?) thorn in the Church’s side. It would open doors allowing the full range of gifts (of women) to heal, accompany, and refresh others. It would bring about the kind of renewing of spirit that we often pray for in our Church.

I have always felt called to ministry leadership, and I hope to be able to serve others as a deacon one day in my lifetime. Specifically, I have training as a preacher and experience officiating weddings. I often lean in to help plan funerals for loved ones, and prayer services around significant events. These ways of offering my service and gifts to others makes me feel most alive.

I feel called to a greater spiritual life on this earth daily. This call goes unfulfilled within the community we currently have in the Church. I stay faithful to the Church in the hope that the Holy Spirit will breathe new life into the Church so that all who are called might serve.
