Qualities of assembly helpers (or deacons/ministers)

1 Tim 3:8–13

8Similarly helpers in the assembly should also be dignified, should only speak the truth, shouldn’t be greedy or addicted to wine, 9and should cling to the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. 10Once they’ve proven themselves to be without any misconduct, then let them be working in the assembly. 11Their wives, too, should be dignified, should only speak the truth, and should be sober and faithful in everything they do. 12These helpers in the assembly should be husbands of one wife, and should lead their children and their households well. 13Those helpers who serve well will earn a good reputation for themselves and increase in confidence in their faith in Yeshua the messiah.
