I first received the Holy Ghost at a church service, and have grown since by church services. You are right that the church will never fulfill that personal level of relationship, but it is a very important part to our walk with God. You may have not been disagreeing with this. My apologies, but I was reading more into what you said.
Buildings doesn't matter, but location does. If my church family gathers then wherever the location is I will be. If the church started Monday morning services then i would try to be there. Nothing ritualistic at all just connected. Sunday service doesn't save, but being part of the Body is evidence of the salvation work that is taken place in our lives.

Agreed. My point was not to cease fellowship, but to approach it from a different direction or "purpose".
