| Sacrists are religious officials of the [[PM/Solar Temple|Solar Temple]], responsible for the administration of the temple's property. This includes seeing that religious buildings are maintained, endowments and properties are profitably managed, and religious workers' needs are provided for. They also assist sacramental clergy (e.g. [[PM/Speculator|speculators]]) in preparing for rituals. Sacrists are traditionally female (and often the wife of a speculator, but this has never been a official requirement.) They may advance in rank to become Conservators, who have a larger oversight responsibility. In the Unsullied Temple, male sacrists are more common. | Sacrists are religious officials of the [[PM/Solar Temple|Solar Temple]], responsible for the administration of the temple's property.
