I have only the core books and am designing a homebrew setting. I have a small woodland town and I want to put in a church of Erastil but everything I read is that there wouldn't be a church but rather a set of antlers in a guildhall in the center of town. So I'm wondering if there's a more "gothic church" type god that would have a saint I could dedicate a rural church to.
Example: The Church of Hoobajoob - once a druid in the service of Serenrae he rose to prominence as healer of the sick and diseased. He then settled near a tiny village which he defended against raiding gnolls. Near the end of his life Hoobajoob negotiated peace with abyssal spirits in the nearby woods and was venerated upon his death with chapel and sepulcher in his honor in the village.
Now that the village has grown over time into the Town of Vexwren when the party arrives they find The Church of Saint Hoobajoob and within they can get healed by the priestess of Seranrae or make contact with Hoobajoob's old order of Druids; the Order of the Treehuggers.
Uhm, I don't know if this makes sense but bottom line; which ones venerate saints or get to have big churches and not just driftwood shrines and such.
A quick search on the Pathfinder Wiki revealed that the churches of Pharasma and Iomedae both venerate saints, among others. I believe that Pharasma's clergy is rather fond of gothic-style architecture and she's also rather dominant in certain rural areas (Ustalav comes to mind).
