A procession is (for lack of a better word) a parade held for a religious purpose. There are many different processions: The enterence procession, the gospel procession, the procession at the prepatation of the altar and gifts, the communion procession, and the recessional procession are examples. Processions are sometimes used during feast day celebrations to honor a particular saint. The procession of palms on Palm Sunday and the prcession with the newly lighted Easter candle at the Easter Vigil are two more examples of processions.
The 14 songs (I think):
1. Enterence hymn
2. Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
3. Gloria
4. Responsorial Psalm
5. Alleluia or Gospel Acclamation
6. Offeritory hymn
7. Holy Holy Holy
8. Memorial Acclamation
9. Doxology and Great Amen
10. Lord's Prayer
11. Lamb of God
12. Communion hymn
13. Concluding hymn
Oops looks like I missed one. Sorry I tried.
God bless,

Sunshine, honey, I think you mean "progression".
The Mass, explains Florian, is really set up like a musical or a play with definite acts and scenes to mark the progression of the liturgy, and as active participants people need to be involved in the whole celebration.
From explaining the appropriate times to "sit, stand, kneel" to comparing the benefits of group-effort organizations like Weight Watchers with the communal celebration of faith during the Mass, Florian paints an inviting and exciting picture of the Mass with examples that will appeal to modern Catholics. all the while, she emphasizes the timeless and universal power and importance of the liturgy.
I couldn't get the sequential order of the 14 songs that you mentioned.

Do you mean Liturgical Procession? That is where the crucifer, priest, acolytes, etc. walk into the church and process to the altar.
The music is the prelude, the processional hymn, sequence hymn, offertory anthem, doxology, sanctus (if sung), fraction anthem, communion anthems, closing hymn and the postlude.
Sometimes the priest might sing part of the service. A cantor might do the Psalm. I can't get 14 out of this. Best I can do. I guess there could be more sequence hymns, but we only use one.
Are you taking a class in church music or something?
