About this Sacrament
"Holy Orders is the sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry."
"The ordained ministers exercise their service for the People of God by teaching, divine worship, and pastoral governance." (Catechism of the Catholic Church)
