You’re right, I was just using that to highlight the differences between American and European protestant churches. Most american churches have ~75 congregants and are fairly small operations run out of buildings that weren’t built with the intention to be a church. As such, they usually lack the aesthetics associated with churches.

And to be fair, I’ve never been to a European protestant (of any variety) church, there’s a cultural image in america of what the average European church looks like, and it’s usually an older brick/stone building with high ceilings and round/arched windows, built with the intention of being a church. Many suburban american churches (this is where the folding chair trope comes from) looks more like this:

And this is a really nice example too, I had trouble finding one that reflected the true reality of many of these smaller churches.
