A priest uses many things during a Mass at a Catholic Church. I shall just give them a quick overview.
Foremost, he uses himself - his entire being: Heart, Mind, and Soul - during the Celebration.
When he arrives: he uses Vestments.
For the Introductory Rites: he uses a book called the Roman Missal.
For the Readings: he uses a Gospel.
For the Homily: he uses his Heart and Mind.
For the Mass: he uses a Roman Missal, Paten, Chalice, Bread, Wine, and a Purificator (a linen cloth).
He uses bread, wine, water and sometimes incense.
Chalice, bread, wine, water, linen, gold paten are all used at the altar by the priest.

No way. Even if you've committed murder and you confess it, the priest cannot tell anyone, not even the cops. This is because Catholic priests are bound by the Church with the 'seal of the sacrament of reconciliation'.

There are no exceptions, and breaking the seal would be punished severely.

Roman Catholic priests are well recognized by their white collars and black clergyman suits or cassocks, although, some priests have chosen to put aside these identifying garments when not performing their duties and use secular clothes.
