    Mostly disused, I believe. For example, sometimes the local parish invites the neighbourhood for church festivities, but barely anyone goes, not even the Catholics.

    I’m also placing my bets that the ones still going are less engaged with that third place than before - based on the invitation banner, as it lists the dishes that will be served. It means that nowadays the church buys food for the festivity, it isn’t a potluck any more as it used to be.

    And yet the old church is there… just emptier.
