Deacons and Deaconesses has as many different connotations as there are churches to bestow it. In some churches, the deacons/deaconesses are the official board, the legally recognized managing body. In other churches it is bestowed as a badge of honor, like “reverend,” but for laymen.  Still other churches appoint almost everyÂone who is a regular attender as a deacon/deaconess.Â
