Who leads in different congregations in a Roman Catholic Church?
Roman Catholic congregations around the world are divided into regional areas called diocese, or in cases where there is a higher number of Catholics in the population, archdiocese. These are lead by a bishop or archbishop. Each congregation within each diocese/archdiocese is led by a priest. This priest is called the pastor of that church. The pastors are appointed by the bishop of the diocese/archdiocese, and are not bound to one church, but may be transferred from congregation to congregation as the bishop sees fit. Every priest in a diocese answers to their bishop. Every bishop and archbishop is appointed directly by the Pope, who is the head of the Catholic Church and believed by Catholics to be the successor of St. Peter, the first pope. It is this way that the Roman Catholic Church traces its roots directly back to Jesus and claims to be the one true Church. The succession of every bishop and archbishop can also be traced directly back to Peter.

A priest who resigns is considered to have resigned from the Church itself and is no longer considered as a Catholic. Since he is no longer Catholic he is free to do as he pleases. However, a priest can remain in the Church as a Catholic if he is laicized. To be laicized the bishop of the diocese would have to declare the priest's Holy Orders as null and void. In other words, he would no longer be a priest. He, too, would be free to marry but would still be considered a Catholic.
