Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!
Living in a rural location brings people nearer to God's creation in a direct way. Trees. Birds. Swine (or wildebeest) (depending on continent) but most importantly it helps in understanding some of the Parables shared with us by Jesus.
Jesus knew that certain types, those living in concrete jungles for instance, would never understand what He meant when He compared understanding to agriculture. Even the disciples had problems comprehending what He meant. If there's only one Church in your area it sounds rural. Perhaps you could cover this in your introduction.

Luke 8:5-7 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it. And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
