Best Answer

The minister of the sacrament of reconciliation, also called Confession, takes the place of Christ. The proper minister for this sacrament is cleric in possession of Holy Orders, usually a priest or a bishop. In fact, during confession it is Christ who forgives you through the priest who acts as a vessel consecrated for that purpose. By his ordination a priest becomes intimately united to Christ. This is why in Confession the priest speaks in the Person of Christ, saying, "I absolve you".

No one "takes the place of Christ" in the most holy Eucharist, although the priest does stand in His place as an "alter Christus" (another Christ). But the priest pronounces the words of Christ, and Christ, Himself, becomes incarnate in the Most Holy Eucharist.
