This is anecdotal but I sat on a small church board as I was heading out of religion and from what I saw the majority of them couldn't keep the lights on. We had to partner with one of those interfaith groups just to do collective bargaining on stuff like insurance. So many of the religious temples/churches in the area were just like a dozen elderly people.

I point out to some people just because a church is small and poor doesn't mean it does good work it just means it is small and poor.

If only we could come up with some sorta department of parks and recreations that could provide activities to seniors. Nah too crazy.

I'm personally very jaded of all religion, but especially southern Bible belt style. Thanks for sharing your experience on the matter!
