# Church Directory

> Search approved church listings by city, country, and denomination. Only approved churches are public.

Each listing has an HTML page at /directory/{slug} and a Markdown copy at /directory/{slug}.md. Browse one facet at a time with the country, category, or city query on /directory. Free-text search pages are not canonical. The admin area is private.
