Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -While all missionaries help to spread God’s love, not all missionaries are Catholic. Catholic missionaries differ from other Christian missionaries because they are in step with Catholic teachings. They support the mission of the Catholic Church to help poor people and spread the Gospel.

Detailed explanation-2: -The primary function of all priests is administering the church’s seven sacraments: baptism, confirmation, confession, holy communion, marriage, holy orders, and anointing of the sick.

Detailed explanation-3: -A priest is a religious leader authorized to perform the sacred rituals of a religion, especially as a mediatory agent between humans and one or more deities. They also have the authority or power to administer religious rites; in particular, rites of sacrifice to, and propitiation of, a deity or deities.

Detailed explanation-4: -Missionaries preach the Christian faith (and sometimes to administer sacraments), and provide humanitarian aid. Christian doctrines (such as the “Doctrine of Love” professed by many missions) permit the provision of aid without requiring religious conversion.
