🟢find_churches_near(worship_style, denomination, language, radius_km, limit)
Find Christian worship churches near the user, ranked by distance. Uses only the coarse location metadata ChatGPT shares, never raw location input fields. If the metadata includes only a city, it searches that city. Filter by worship style, denomination, or language.
