The Permanent Diaconate

[son_of_angels]

If one were to become a Permanent Deacon while unmarried, would he, if he feels the vocation to do so, be able to later become a priest?

son_of_angels,

Yeah, but he'd have to go through the Congregation for the Clergy to be able to do that. Hope this helps.

Yours,
Pio Nono
