Other Rules clarifications
- You may set aside zero, one, two, or three cards from your hand. Put them face down; you may look at them.
- No matter how many cards you set aside, you may trash a card at the start of your next turn and Church is discarded at the end of that turn.
- The card you trash can be a card you had set aside, or a card that was already in your hand.
- If you play multiple Churches (or one Church multiple times such as via Throne Room), you may set aside multiple batches of up to three cards. What happens on your next turn is this: you put one batch of set-aside cards in hand, then trash, then put the next batch of set-aside cards in hand, then trash. You can choose which batch of set-aside cards you put in hand first.

Trivia
This card was designed together with Captain on request by ASS to commemorate the victors of the "Jubiläumsmeisterschaft" (jubilee championship), organized 2018 in Germany and Austria to celebrate ten years of Dominion. The church shown in the art is Schwerin Cathedral. It represents Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the winner of a 12-month competition taking place 2018.
Secret History
Church was an early card in Nocturne. That version set aside up to 2 cards, and trashed up to 2 cards. We enjoyed it, but it was too powerful, and also there was a lot of competition for trashing in Nocturne. Other cards made it in instead. So then we needed a promo for a tournament Altenburger was running, that would have a winning province of Germany. What landmark, that there would be lots of in Germany, would be recognizable from medieval times? Hey, how about a church? That suggested a trasher, and I remembered this card. Changing the numbers to 3 set aside and 1 trashed fixed up the power level while also shifting the focus of the card. Now it's this way you can set up a turn, and hey it's also a trasher. Altenburger had people vote on which church, after a province won, and they picked Schwerin Cathedral. The German version of the card is called Schweriner Dom. This particular church changed a lot since medieval times - they built that tower. The art shows it as it exists today, not as it did then, because it makes it the recognizable thing and no-one minds that kind of anachronism, no-one I say.
