Pope Paul, in a 1967 molu proprio, outlined specific tasks which a bishop can assign to a deacon. These mclude such duties as to assist bishops and priests al liturgical functions, to administer baptism, to dis tribute Holy Communion, ad- minister sacramentals, preside at funerals and burial services, read the Scriptures to the people and preach, preside at worship and prayer services in the absence of a priest, minister to scattered Catholic com- munities in behalf of the parish priest and encourage the lay apostolate. Permission <.,rantf'd In 1968 the Vatican granted permission to the National Conference of Catholic Bishops to restore the permane1tt diaconate for married and unmarried men of mature years in those areas where they are needed This ml.'ans, in prac- tice, men 35 years or older, but a candidate fCJl office can begin lraimng several years earlier.

A St.anding Committee has been set up by the NCCB to oversee restoration of the diaconate. The U.S. bishops have declared that they wished to introduce the permanent diacona le in this country "both to complete the hierarchy of sacred orders and to enrich and strengthen the various diaconal rmmstries at work in the United States with the sacramental grace of the d1acona le." Integral Part "'l'o complete the hierarchy of sacred orders" refers to the fact that the diaconate is an integral part of the ministerial hierarchy - bishops, priests and deacons - originally established in the Church.
