The term deacon comes from the Greek word "diaconos" which means a servant. However, in the Christian Church, the term is mainly used to describe a man who is training to become a priest, and is the first 'order' of clergy before being made a priest, but he can also remain a deacon without later becoming a priest. The three levels or 'orders' of ordination are deacon, priest, and bishop. In most cases, a deacon acts as an assistant to a priest.
