Training and ordination never make a deacon out of a non-deacon. If the identity of deacons in the Church is ever clarified it will be only because the Church is willing to work with deacons to enable them to become sacraments and symbols of the ministry and service which Jesus so well demonstrated in his life. The project involved the design, implementation and evaluation of a parish-based continuing formation program for seven permanent deacons. In the design phase, a needs assessment, including the Deacon Perceiver Interview and the Myers-Briggs as well as systems analysis, were used to articulate goals for the continuing formation program. In the implementation phase, nine training sessions were conducted which focused on the issue of identity development from the Whiteheads, Erikson, Zullo and Egan, and theological reflection skills. In the evaluation phase, five of the deacons committed themselves to specific ministries within the parish community and two deacons discontinued ministry.
