Several ordained deacons in training for the priesthood in the Diocese of the Mid-South presented timed sermons during training held at the Cathedral of Christ the King in Sharpsburg. The sermons were each critiqued by six experienced ministers and the deacons met one-on-one with one of the ministers for personal evaluation and advice.
