Answer A Cathlolic priest who is a monsignor (an honorary title) wears the same vestments as any priest when celebrating the Eucharist. The colour of a monsignorial cassock is different from that of a priest. There are three levels of monsignor: Chapain: Black cassock with purple trim and purple sash. Honorary Prelate: Black cassock with red trim and purple sash. On formal occasions they wear a purple cassock. They do not wear a pectoral cross or a skull cap as do bishops. Apostolic Protonotary: These dress in the same manner as honorary prelates, but have the option of using a purple cape (trimmed in red) on formal occasions.

∙ 11y agoThat would depend entirely on who the sacristan was and what he was doing. For instance, I serve as one of the sacristans at my parish. When I am serving as sacristan, I usually wear a sports coat and tie, or suit on Sunday. If I am serving a Sunday Mass, I might put on a cassock and surplice. If the sacristan is a monk, for instance, he would normally wear his habit, and a surplice over it if he were serving at a liturgical function. Bottom line? There is no set vestment for a sacristan.
