May I suggest that wherever possible, a white shirt be worn by the deacons, teachers, and priests who handle the sacrament? For sacred ordinances in the Church, we often use ceremonial clothing, and a white shirt could be seen as a gentle reminder of the white clothing you wore in the baptismal font and in anticipation of the white shirt you will soon wear into the temple and onto your missions. That simple suggestion is not intended to be pharisaic or formalistic. We do not want deacons or priests in uniforms or unduly concerned about anything but the purity of their lives. But how our young people dress can teach a holy principle to us all. And it certainly can convey sanctity. As President David O. McKay once said, "A white shirt contributes to the sacredness of the holy sacrament."
