The Roman Catholic Church has a formal order of service for the everyday (Sunday and daily mass) and the special occasion (weddings and funerals). There is a set of readings in the "Ordo" for the daily readings with one Old Testament and one Gospel reading (with exceptions). Also the order of the mass is laid out in the Sacramentary, which has all the prayers and steps. This formal order stems from the early church. In the first hundred years after the Resurrection of Jesus, the Didache was used as a standardized order of service.

What is the difference between the Greek Orthodox Church and the Armenian Catholic Church?
The Armenian Catholic Church is an Eastern Catholic Church in communion with the Pope in Rome. What that means is that a member of a local Catholic Church and a member of the Armenian Catholic Church are essentially the same. The Apostle Peter is considered to be the first Pope and founder of Roman Catholicism. Tradition tells us that the Eastern churches were formed by others of Jesus's Apostles after his death and resurrection. It is interesting to note that many of the Eastern churches have been in and out of communion with Rome, and that most if not all of the Eastern churches (19+ from different parts of the world) have counterpart churches with virtually the same traditions which are not in communion with Rome. Roman Catholics can attend Masses and take Communion in Eastern Catholic Churches and vice versa, but the liturgies (order of the Mass) will be very different.

Can a deacon become a priest?
In most Churches that have the threefold order (deacons, priests and bishops), like the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican Churches, most deacons are ordained priests after one year being a deacon. However, some elect to remain as permanent deacons as this is where they believe their calling lies. Also, in the Roman Catholic Church married men are allowed to become deacons but are not, as yet, allowed to become priests (although some Catholic priests are now married - such as married Anglican priests who have moved to the Roman Catholic Church)> therefore, for married men the diaconate is the only order open to them and they remain deacons permanently.
