Offertory is the part of a mass where the deacons pass around the collection plate to get donations for the church. Additionally, the bread and wine used in the Eucharist are brought out and laid on the altar.
During the Liturgy of the Eucharist, there are typically two main processions. The first is the procession of the gifts, where the bread and wine are brought to the altar.

Dimmesdale's manner during the procession is notably marked by a sense of vulnerability and inner turmoil. He walks with a hesitant and almost ghostly demeanor, reflecting his deep-seated guilt and shame over his secret sin.

This internal conflict manifests in his physical posture, suggesting a man burdened by his conscience.
