Origin and role of Christian deacons in early churches
The term deacon comes from a Greek word meaning servant. Acts 6:1-6 shows deacons chosen in Jerusalem to aid the poor. In Philippians 1:1 and 1 Timothy 3:8 they serve under bishops and presbyters. Episcopal churches ordain deacons as a step to higher ministry. Presbyterian churches ordain deacons from laity focused on social projects. The First Church of Christ Scientist was established in Boston in 1879, nearing its centennial.
