I guess "horodok" means "village", like
the russian equivalent "gorodok" (and spelled the same
way in both languages, actually), so the flag may be indirectly
canting if the church protrayed may be percieved as some sort of
typical village church.

Literally the "gorodok" (or horodok) is a little
town (gorod), not a village.
