The official title for a Catholic priest is "Reverend Father."
Yes he was a priest.
There are some in the Catholic Church who use the word "presider" to refer to the priest (or Bishop) celebrant at Mass. Technically this is incorrect as the word presider is not used in any official Church documents, while the word "celebrant" refers to the priest or bishop who presides at a Mass. The word "celebrant" is used in the GIRM and the CCC.
The priest's home is a rectory.
The priest represents Christ. At the Alter the Holy Spirit works through the priest to turn the bread and wine into the body and blood or Our Lord Jesus Christ. As Christ made the Church His bride the priest on earth marries himself to the Church.
