The first seven deacons of the early church were appointed according to Acts 6:3,4 to allow the apostles to focus on prayer and establishing the church instead of "waiting tables".

How were the seven helpers appointed?

The seven helpers, often referred to as the Seven Deacons, were appointed in the early Christian church to address the needs of the growing community, particularly to ensure fair distribution of food and resources. The apostles, recognizing the need for assistance in managing these practical matters, proposed the selection of seven reputable men filled with the Spirit and wisdom. The community was then involved in the selection process, and the chosen individuals were presented to the apostles, who prayed and laid hands on them to commission them for their duties. This process emphasized both community involvement and spiritual qualifications.
