Kad

Swedish to English Other Religion
This appears on a marriage certificate, beneath the name of the person signing on behalf of the Parish office. It seems to denote the person's official position.
The quality of the scanned document is poor, it could possibly say Kod.
The first letter is upper case, the last two are lower case.
Any help appreciated.

Curate

I believe it might mean Kyrkoadjunkt (Ex officio adjunkt är en titel för präster i Finland, mostvarande pastorsadjunkt/kyrkoadjunkt i Sverige, d.v.s den tjänstemässigt lägsta graden i den kyrkliga organisationen. http://www.herrmattsslakt.se/ab/kt.htm).

If it does, then curate might be what you're after:

1
: a clergyman in charge of a parish
2
: a clergyman serving as assistant (as to a rector) in a parish

church ordained deacon

Could it be an abbreviation of something like "kyrka" "ordinerad" and "diakon" = church ordained deacon?
