During ordination, a priest typically receives three key symbols: the chalice and paten, which signify the priest's role in celebrating the Eucharist; the stole, representing the authority and responsibility of the priesthood; and the anointing with chrism oil, symbolizing the Holy Spirit's empowerment for ministry. These items collectively underscore the spiritual and sacramental duties entrusted to the priest.

Who assist the priest in the Mass?

An acolyte was originally a special position in the Church that was given through minor ordination from a bishop to a candidate aspiring to the priesthood. The acolytes specific duty was to assist the priest at mass and hold the candles during the reading of the Gospel. In modern times, due to seminaries being instituted, strict acolytes were no longer available in local parishes. As a result, the men of the parish were given the tasks the acolyte would usually perform and thus the archaic term acolyte has become synonymous with "altar server". The modern acolyte is to assist the priest at Mass by doing all tasks peripheral but supporting of the Sacrifice of the Mass. Acolytes lead the priest in, carry books and implements to their needed locations during the service, transfer items, present the offerings for the sacrifice, assist in the purification of the priest's hands and holy vessels, hold the candles during the Gospel and lead the priest out after Mass.

How does the priestly ordination go in order from pope to deacon?

Sub deaconDeaconPriestBishopArchbishopCardinalPopeRoman Catholic AnswerThere are only three ordinations available. The fullness of the Christ's priesthood is given only in the ordination to Bishop. Priest and Deacon are "helpers" to the Bishop, and thus have a "limited" (so to speak) ordination. Priests can not ordain, and Deacons can not celebrate the Eucharist, hear Confessions, or administer Unction (or Ordain). Archbishop, Cardinal, and Pope are not ordinations, they are all Bishops, with the fullness of Christ's priesthood like any other Bishops. They are ranks of honor or administration; the Holy Father being a completely different order as the successor of Peter - but as far as ordination is concerned, they are all Bishops.
