La Diócesis de San Ángelo fue una de las primeras en ordenar diáconos después de que el Concilio Vaticano Segundo restableciera el diaconado permanente. La primera ordenación de diáconos permanentes en la Diócesis de San Ángelo fue realizada por el Obispo Stephen A. Leven en agosto de 1976. Planeo ordenar nuestra clase de formación actual en 2026. Pronto comenzaremos a realizar sesiones informativas para aquellos que puedan ser llamados a formar la próxima clase, cuya ordenación diaconal se llevaría a cabo en 2029.
The Diocese of San Angelo was one of the first to ordain deacons after the permanent diaconate was restored by the Second Vatican Council. The first ordination of permanent deacons in the Diocese of San Angelo was by Bishop Stephen A. Leven in August of 1976. I plan to ordain our current formation class in 2026. We will soon begin conducting informational sessions for those who may be called to form the next class, whose diaconal ordination should take place in 2029.

El 18 de dic. de 2023, el Dicasterio para la Doctrina de la Fe del Vaticano publicó Fiducia Supplicans, una declaración sobre el significado pastoral de las bendiciones. Algunos titulares de los medios de comunicación malinterpretaron el documento, afirmando que permite a los sacerdotes respaldar relaciones que no están de acuerdo con las Escrituras o la enseñanza católica tradicional. Sin embargo, Fiducia Supplicans (FS) no cambia ninguna parte de la enseñanza católica sobre el matrimonio o la sexualidad. El adulterio sigue siendo un pecado. La actividad homosexual sigue siendo un pecado.
On Dec. 18, 2023, the Vatican Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith published Fiducia Supplicans, a declaration on the pastoral meaning of blessings. Some media headlines misconstrued the document, claiming that it allows priests to endorse relationships that are not in accord with Scripture or traditional Catholic teaching. However, Fiducia Supplicans (FS) does not change any part of Catholic teaching about marriage or sexuality. Adultery is still a sin. Homosexual activity is still a sin.
