Do Clergy Have Fun?
Priests are regular people.  They have as much or as little fun as anyone else.  Some people say that that if a priest is able to have fun, that person makes a better priest.  Many clergy have hobbies, play sports, go to concerts and spend time with friends.  Clergy also see their work as a calling, so often they find their work exhilarating.  But, just like any vocation, there are tough times, too, and the ability to have fun and enjoy recreation can lead to a fulfilling life and a deeply meaningful priesthood as well.
