One positive thing church does tend to provide is community - a place to gather where people know about you and, theoretically, care about you.
Where do you find community in your life?
Our small Universal-Unitarian Fellowship includes atheists, humanists, Wiccan, Jew, Baptist, and more. A whole range of different beliefs, loyalties, and concerns. Yes, we focus on the areas we agree, but we also make a point to learn about where we differ.

First would be family and extended family, with 6 kids and 14 grandkids all living in the Portland area except a daughter in Georgia. Attend a Unitarian Universalist church, and am active in several things, a humanist group, men's group, two discussion groups, and several committee's. Our celtic band has an open session every Sunday afternoon, with attendance from 6 to 15. Play in a music group at a local senior center. Volunteer at local library. Plus some time here.
Community centres are a BIG thing in my region, we call them neighbourhood centres, where I am we can do pretty much anything, we have a tech centre, all sorts of classes from toddlers to seniors, yoga, fitness, gardening, blokey type furniture workshops. Many of the people involved go to diner occasionally in small groups, I go fishing with a few, meet a few in the surf. It is our village hub. We have another smaller organisation actually called a community centre.
I regularly visit a local game store to play Dungeon & Dragons. It’s nice to actually sit down with peope and enjoy something together.
Here, mostly.
And random online penpals who exchange original poetry with me.
I don't know that I've ever "found community" in meatspace. I'm not fully human, so it's alright.
