The Sacrament of HOLY  ORDERS

Link to  "Be A Priest"  - www.beapriest.ca    -   
​
In Brief:
The Sacrament of Holy Orders is the continuation of Christ's priesthood, which He bestowed upon His Apostles; thus, the Catechism of the Catholic Church refers to the Sacrament of Holy Orders as "the sacrament of apostolic ministry." The three levels of the sacrament are the episcopate, the priesthood, and the diaconate.
In the Sacrament of Holy Orders, or Ordination, the priest being ordained vows to lead other Catholics by bringing them the sacraments (especially the Eucharist), by proclaiming the Gospel, and by providing other means to holiness.
