Almighty Father, grant to this servant of yours the dignity of the priesthood. Renew within him the Spirit of holiness. As a co-worker with the order of bishops may he be faithful to the ministry that he receives from you. Lord God, and be to others a model of right conduct.
During holy orders, a bishop typically asks the candidate for priesthood a series of questions related to their commitment to serving the Church and living a life of faith. The bishop also bestows blessings and prayers upon the candidate, invoking the Holy Spirit for guidance and strength in their future ministry.
During the sacrament of Holy Orders, the candidate is asked questions by the bishop about their commitment to serving the Church, adherence to its teachings, and willingness to fulfill the duties of their ordained role. The candidate then promises obedience to the bishop and his successors, as well as to the teachings of the Church.
During the ordination of a bishop, the bishop-elect makes several promises, including loyalty and obedience to the Pope, ministering faithfully, preaching the Gospel, and fostering unity with the Church. The bishop also declares his belief in the faith and commits to upholding the teachings of the Church. Additionally, prayers are said over the bishop-elect asking for the grace and guidance of the Holy Spirit in his new role.
Attached below is the entire rite or Ordination taken from the 1962 Sancta Missa containing all the responses.
During the Rite of Ordination, a priest will say prayers invoking the Holy Spirit to empower the candidate with the gifts needed for ministry, consecrate their hands for the celebration of the sacraments, and offer blessings for their future service to the Church.
Holy Orders is what makes a person a deacon! The Diaconite is one type of ordained priesthood, the lowest kind.AnswerI wouldn't say "lowest form" more like the most constrained or limited. It is in itself a vocation and level of priesthood, especially in the case of permanent deacons.
Be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit. Then the one being confirmed says: "Amen." Then the bishop will say: "Peace be with you." And the confirmande will say: "and with your spirit" while shaking the bishop's hand.
Women's Orders are in ascending order: Deacon (Deaconess), Priest, and Bishop. They are exactly the same as the Holy Orders for men. The only difference is gender titles, whether you say she or her; he or him. For example: He is a deacon in our church. His role as Priest is very demanding on his time.
The bishop will say "Be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit" and you say "Amen". Then he says "Peace be with you" and you say "And also with you"
As clerics, deacons are required to say the Liturgy of the Hours daily; Deacons, like bishops and priests, are ordinary ministers of the Sacrament of Baptism and can serve as the church's witness at the sacrament of Holy Matrimony, which the bride and groom administer to each other.
Holy orders is another word for repentance. We say sorry to God for sinning against him and he welcomes us into his home again. That good enough??
He will ask the young people to say their Baptismal vows(which all come from the Apostles' & the Nicene Creeds), & then he will touch the young person's foreheads & say, "Receive the Seal of the Holy Spirit."
Stand up before the Bishop. Repeat your Baptismal vows. Let the Bishop touch your forehead & say the words "Receive the Seal of the Holy Spirit."
"I do." (when responding to your Baptismal vows.)
Roman Catholic AnswerNuns can't "give" the sacraments because they are nuns not priests. However, nuns can be Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist and distribute communion at mass or take it to the sick and shut-ins. Any trained lay person can do this. Also, nuns can baptize (as can any lay person) in the case of an emergency when a priest is not available.
