The churches around where i live have all closed due to no interest,hence no congreation.One is a nightclub,another is a meadery,two have been converted into domestic residences and three have been demolished and houses built on the ground.I don't know where the nearest church is any more
Yep very often from an orthodox church about 5 minutes away. Usually around 6pm- 7pm also when it's a specific holiday or saint day i'm not sure if they do it for wedding though.
