Holy Orders is the ordination of a man to his vocation to the priesthood. In the Sacrament of Holy Orders, also known as Ordination, the priest being ordained vows to lead other Catholics by bringing them the sacraments (especially the Eucharist), by proclaiming the Gospel, and by providing other means to holiness. It also includes diaconate ordinations, and ordinations to the episcopacy, for Bishops.
