Does anyone have familiarity with any of the usages, below, of "deacon" as a verb?

deacon

1.(in hierarchical churches) a member of the clerical order next below that of a priest.
2.(in other churches) an appointed or elected officer having variously defined duties.
3.(in Freemasonry) either of two officers in a masonic lodge.
–verb (used with object)
4.to pack (vegetables or fruit) with only the finest pieces or the most attractive sides visible.
5.to falsify (something); doctor.
6.to castrate (a pig or other animal).
7.to read aloud (a line of a psalm, hymn, etc.) before singing it.

Never come across it, though I love number 4

since my father is a minister, i'm familiar with definition 7.
