Lot - The Gospel Hall

In the old days people gathered at the Gospel Hall, not just to hear the gospel, but to have coffee and chat and have fun and eat and gossip and flirt and make friends. It was one of the few places were a honorable woman could meet an honorable man, and still keep her honor. I've made this one a diner, so no sim will leave hungry, neither in a physical nor spiritual sense.

Lot - Agios Ioannis Orthodox Church

Life is short, especially for the sims, and the orthodox sims needed a place to bury their loved ones. So they built this little chapel in a secluded part of town, and very soon the marble "tafos" became inhabited by the deceased.

The little chapel is built in honor of Agios Ioannis, or St. John if you like, and here the sims can find a quiet moment or grief. Or maybe they prefer to have a little picnic, close to their family members.

Lot - Agia Sophia Orthodox Church

In some simtowns there is a community with Greek origin (like my Kefalonian neighbourhood), and where there are Greeks, there is of course at least one Greek Orthodox church. The Greek sims are very proud of their old church from the byzantine period, and they use it frequently. Obviously they go to church to pray or light a candle, but it is of course the natural center for any big, Greek, fat wedding, and the obvious place to meet at the important village- and church celebrations; the Panegyri.

Lot - Simtown Lutheran Cathedral

The protestant community in Simtown worship their old, lavish Cathedral from 1860. Of course it is mostly used for funerals and moments of grief, but many families also adore the large park surrounding the Cathedral, and use it subsequently for a nice Sunday picnic. In the church they are able to hear the Sunday preach, spend a moment of silent prayer, or just listen to some lovely church music.
