There are no 'sacraments of service'. Through sacraments we are called to serve.There are sacraments of initiation (baptism, confirmation, eucharist), sacrament of healing (penance, anointing the sick), sacrament of vocation (holy orders, matrimony).From the Catechism of the Catholic Church:1534Two other sacraments, Holy Orders and Matrimony, are directed towards the salvation of others; if they contribute as well to personal salvation, it is through service to others that they do so. They confer a particular mission in the Church and serve to build up the People of God.
The Sacraments of Service are: Holy Orders and Matrimony
Holy Orders and Matrimony are sacramental acts that are often combined with a celebration of the Eucharist (Communion). The Eucharist, however, is separate from those two rites.

Vocations aren't sacraments, they're callings. Vocations take many forms, but you and I most commonly refer to them as "jobs" or "careers". A baker, the candlestick maker, the computer programmer and the artist are all vocations. The purpose of a vocation is to serve God. Whatever your vocation is, know that it is something God chose for you and through doing your vocation you are serving humanity and God by doing it well. The original answer to this question refers primarily to the sacrament of Holy Orders which is for clergy (Priests and Deacons). Nuns do not receive Holy Orders. Being a member of the clergy is *also* a vocation!
Holy Orders and Matrimony are called sacraments of service because they involve a lifelong commitment to serve others. In Holy Orders, individuals serve the Church and its members through ministry as priests, deacons, or bishops. In Matrimony, spouses serve each other and their families by living out their vows and supporting each other in their journey of faith.
