church events
Parish community activities
Church events are organized gatherings or activities held by a religious congregation—worship services, potlucks, youth group meetings, Bible studies, weddings, funerals, holiday celebrations.
The phrase covers both sacred occasions and social functions: The church events calendar lists everything from Sunday services to the annual pancake breakfast.
