Holy Orders is the sacrament through which a man is ordained as a deacon, priest, or bishop by the laying on of hands and prayer. This sacrament conveys a special grace and power to serve the Church and administer the other sacraments. It is one of the seven sacraments recognized by the Roman Catholic Church.
Yes. While the catholic church recognizes the Baptism as valid it does not recognize the Confirmation as valid, since it requires administration by a priest having received the valid sacrament of holy orders. While the Catholic Church and Episcopal Church are close in tradition and both have seven sacraments, only Baptism is considered as valid.
