Hi Monica. I am reminded of reading about fourth-century Christ followers who did meet in cemeteries, around the graves/shrines of saints and martyrs. The author, whose name escapes me (maybe Ramsey MacMullin?), measured the available space within churches and basilicas, concluding that there was not enough space for ordinary people, so they developed their own cemetery liturgies, accompanied by lunch. The churches were for the clergy and the prominent; the quiet grave sites for all the many who literally could not fit into church.
