Deacon routine

Good day. I need information what will be an ordained deacon routine after Liturgy or besides Church related work. Like can he accept other company work with five days working time or 8hours per day? Other information that will be shared I appreciate a lot and thanks in advance.

Need prayers,
Abanoub

    I have very limited knowledge regarding the "ziakon" rank.

    I most certainly know that a "Full deacon," as we refer to them in North America, is dedicated and consecrated to serving the altar of the lord. This means that deacons are only permitted to work church related work and to serve as the eyes and ears of the bishop (4th century Didascalia.) However, the Deacon is not required to wear the farougia (black dress that clergy wear) all the time and is allowed to dress in whatever modest dress that fits the time and culture.

    Your prayers,
