Today I had a funeral of someone on my gf's family side. The deceased was a very active Christian Evangelical believer and the funeral was in an Evangelical Church. I was raised a Catholic but haven't been to church for a long time.
The funeral consisted of Christian songs, prayers and bible readings. There were a lot of younger people (13-15 year olds) there. It surprised me that they all knew every prayer, reading and song front to back. Like, I couldn't imagine any Dutch youth still so active in the church. But they exist, I guess. It's the Bible Belt for a reason. Big cultural surprise, in my own country.
