For communities (abbayes, monasteries, convents...) I tag the church as 
amenity=place_of_worship as other churches

On the community building I put the tags
religion=christian
denomination=catholic
community=NNN  using the abreviation :
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abr%C3%A9viations_des_ordres_religieux_catholiques
Sorry no translation of this page.

I don't know if we can distinguish churches between shines, community 
and parish churches actualy.
parish churches (and also cathedrals) could be found as members of a 
relation:boundary:religious_administration according to
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:boundary#Roman_Catholic_Church

Convent churches could be found as member of a relation:site with the 
community tag

But what about shrines...
