You are clearly very confused.

Most monks could not "take services"; only priests could take services, hear confessions, conduct weddings, burials and baptisms, perform the last rights and so on. Most monks were not ordained priests and could do none of these things.

Some monks in each monastery did become priests, in order to lead the services and hear confessions, but they were generally few in number. They were not intended to provide services for ordinary people - that was the role of the parish priest.
