Church

సంఘము (assembly/congregation) is the majority Protestant/Baptist usage, matching this region’s larger established denominational base; Catholic Telugu usage sometimes favors సభ. This curriculum standardizes on సంఘము and holds it consistently — mixing the two across lessons would read as careless to an audience with a century of settled church vocabulary, unlike a newer mission context where either term would simply be new information. Never దేవాలయం (Hindu temple).
