In honor of Independence Day, I would like to offer these examples of priests with a healthy sensse of Ignatian independence from the typical vocation:
The Rapper Priest, West Coast (that picture is just begging for an Ironic Catholic Caption Contest)
Do you know of any hypen-priests that deserve our attention?

Well, he's Episcopalian so he's a different kind of priest, but Robert Farrar Capon wrote THE SUPPER OF THE LAMB, an amazing book with some wonderful recipes.

Architect Priest! What a good antidote to Richard Vosko, the creep responsible for ruining Our Lady of Lourdes in Oakland, St. John the Evangelist in Milwaukee, and many other churches worldwide.

Well...as a parish secretary, perhaps I see more than most, but with the priest shortage, MOST pastors are hyphen-something....depending on the hour of the day, & what Providence has provided for the day. How about janitor-priest (cleaning up after the toilet in the lady's room overflowed & emptying trash cans), gardener-priest (digging up a garden of perennials before new construction was to begin in that spot), calligrapher-priest (writing all the book plates inside the new hymnals of those who sponsored them)....the list continues.
