at the church/in the church

[Angela R]

Dear teachers! Could you please help me? There is a sentence "It started after a townswoman was late for the Shriving service in the Olney Church of St Peter and St Paul. "
And you have to find a mistake. The keys say I should use "at the Olney Church"

Could you be so kind and explain it to me?

Thanks a lot.

Both "in" and "at" are possible.

I agree with bhaisahab. Consequently, I can't find an error in that sentence.

Thank you a lot. I couldn`t find an error in this sentence either. I was taught to use both.

Thank you a lot for your help.
