From Catechism of the Catholic Church
1669 Sacramentals derive from the baptismal priesthood: every baptized person is called to be a “blessing,” and to bless.174 Hence lay people may preside at certain blessings; the more a blessing concerns ecclesial and sacramental life, the more is its administration reserved to the ordained ministry (bishops, priests, or deacons).175
Aside and tip: I always keep Holy Water and Holy Salt at home to bless items when I can’t make it to Mass to see my parish priest. When I go to Mass, I’ll replenish this.
God Bless🙏💕
