Deacon Ormonde Plater - Archived Documents

Picture
The following materials were created by Deacon Ormonde Plater. Following his death on August 6, 2016, those materials have been transferred to AED's website for continued use. We are immeasurably grateful to Ormonde for his hard work in creating and offering this material to the deacon community.
By the mystery of this water and wine
may we come to share in the divinity of Christ
who humbled himself to share in our humanity.

          ~ Prayer of the deacon on pouring water into wine
