How long does the voted in position of being a Deacon in a Baptist Church last and does the Deacon have to stay a Deacon if he wishes to get out of being one after a couple of years?
Each church is different - they operate according to their own individual constitution and by-laws. Just about any church office should be able to provide a copy of their constitution. In my church, deacons serve for a term of three years and then have a one-year period afterward where they cannot serve except under some specific circumstances; if a deacon wishes "to get out", they can simply resign their position. This is all laid out in my church's constitution.

i have been a baptist all of my life. I have never seen someone kicked out of the a church, but if you stand up in the middle of a prayer and curse god, most baptist churchs will make you leave. most baptist chruchs are mostly independant and pick there own preachers/make there own rules of conduct in the church.

Could a divorce deacon and a widow catholic marry?
A Deacon is an ordained minister and cleric of the Catholic Church and has the authority to perform the Sacraments of Baptism, and Marriage providing there is no Mass. This is because, unlike a Priest, a Deacon cannot preside over the Eucharistic Sacrament. They are sanctioned to read the gospel and deliver the homily during Mass as well.
