Pat O'Brien, The Priest Who Wasn't...Then Was

Elena Souris

Pat O'Brien decided to take a leave of absence from his job, but he was a Catholic priest. Then that -- what was supposed to be -- a short leave of absence went on for 20 years.
 
What does a Catholic priest who isn't...do?
 
He told this story at our March 1 show, with the theme "In Service."
 

Worth Repeating is Texas Public Radio's live, storytelling event series that tries to capture the Sound of San Antonio through the stories of your friends and neighbors.
