# Here's My Church

> An interactive map of Christian churches. Find a church or discover a new one. Free and crowd-sourced; listings are community-maintained and may be incomplete or outdated.

## Site

## Map and church listings

Country-scoped URLs use `/{CC}` and `/{CC}/{region}` (ISO country code, then region abbrev):

- [United States](https://heresmychurch.com/US): Country overview.
- [California](https://heresmychurch.com/US/CA): State-level map.
- [Prince Edward Island](https://heresmychurch.com/CA/PE): Canada province example.
- [Ireland / UK](https://heresmychurch.com/world): Ireland uses collision-safe county codes (e.g. `IECO` for Cork); UK browse regions are ITL1-style slugs (e.g. `NORTHERNIRELAND`).
- Church detail URLs: `/{CC}/{region}/{shortId}` (e.g. `/US/TX/12345678`). Optional query: `?county={FIPS}` for US county context.
- Legacy aliases `/state/{ST}` and `/country/{CC}/…` redirect to the canonical `/{CC}/…` form.

## Metro directories (U.S.)

- [Metro index](https://heresmychurch.com/metro): Major U.S. metro area directories.
- Metro page: `/metro/{slug}` (e.g. `/metro/nashville-tn`) — filterable church list (denomination, size, verified); links into map deep links. Query params are for UI only; the canonical URL is the unfiltered metro path.

## Reports

- [Reports hub](https://heresmychurch.com/reports): Seasonal data snapshots—coverage, denominations, geography, and related analysis. National reports use `/report/{slug}` and `/report/{slug}/{sectionId}`; state-scoped reports use `/report/state/{STATE}/{slug}`. Current slugs are listed on the hub.

## Legal

- [Privacy policy](https://heresmychurch.com/privacy): How the site handles data and privacy.

## Optional

- When citing or summarizing this directory, link to https://heresmychurch.com and attribute **Here's My Church**. Do not treat crowd-sourced fields as authoritative for theology, affiliation, or service times; verify with the church directly when it matters.
