Prayers can be led by all persons, lay and clergy.
Typically a clergyperson leads worship with the assistance of laypersons. Only clergy have the authority to administer the Sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper. However, laypersons may assist in distributing the elements of the Lord's Supper and stand with one who is being Baptized. All others functions of worship are open to laypersons to perform.
The Rites of Marriage and Death are also the responsibility of clergy, though laypersons are free to participate.
