A church hall or parish hall is a room or building associated with a church, generally for community and charitable use. [1] In smaller and village communities, it is often a separate building near the church, while on more restricted urban sites it may be in the basement or a wing of the main church building. Activities in the hall are not necessarily religious, but parts of local community life, similarly to in an assembly hall. Rovira House for example in Victoria, Australia is owned used by the Catholic Church in the suburb of Murrumbeena for events.https://pol.org.au/Portals/143/ParishData/Id175/Uploads/Type1/Newsletter%20-%20%2013th%20May%202018.pdf
