Most people may be familiar with the ministries and role of the parish priest. There are also priests who are not directly associated with parishes. Some may be part of a religious community, although religious communties adminster parishes as well. Sometimes priests have ministries associated at shrines, hospitals, or schools, among other places. Fr. Frank discusses his experience as a religious priest and his roles at St. Jude Shrine, as a teacher, and in other ministries. Religious communities typically are involved in apostolic work that reflects their particular charism.
