This all depends, of course, on where you live - a small village? An ancient town? A new town? A modern housing estate? A city centre?

Begin with a map of your area. Are there any churches? Where? How old? Are they at the centre of things? Then try to investigate under the surface of things - there's a good chance, even in the most modern housing estate, that the land was once owned by a church institution!

Also, as the video makes clear, the church's influence was more than simply being a place of worship. It provided medical and social welfare, education and housing. Has this been the case in your area? Do you go to a church school? Are there alms houses nearby? Did the local hospital begin as a religious foundation (or as a workhouse?).

And what is the place of the church in your local community today?
