Gold Deaconess Pin

Antique gold deaconess lapel pins measure 3/4 inches wide with clutch backing. Proudly wear your church office. The Deacon is a faithful servant and blameless example to the church he is appointed to serve. His qualifications and responsibilities have roots originating from the disputes within the early church.
The New Testament seems to indicate that both men and women were appointed as deacons in the early church. In Romans 16:1, Paul calls Phoebe a deaconess: I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a deacon in the church in Cenchrea. (NLT)
