Yes, there is typically a timeframe before one can become a deacon, which varies by denomination and individual church policies. Generally, candidates must undergo a period of discernment, education, and training that can last several years. This process often includes spiritual formation, theological study, and practical experience in ministry. Additionally, candidates usually must meet specific requirements, such as age and marital status, which can also influence the timeline.

Nope. The Catholic Church on this is pretty clear. Those who are unmarried and become deacons can not marry afterwards. Those who are already married and become deacons can not marry again should their wife pass on, leaving them as a widow. An unwed or widowed deacon can become a full priest. However, in the Anglican or Episcopal Church, both deacons and priests may marry, whether or not the deacon or priest is male or female. A divorced deacon or priest wishing to remarry may present a problem, but if a priest or deacon is widowed, they are free to remarry, as, at their wedding vows they promised to stay together 'until death us do part'.
