They do, yes. Regular church attendance across Belgium is about 5%, pretty much the same as in Russia. My impression is that it is higher in the countryside, and certainly among the older generation. And when there is a funeral, the whole village is either in church or very close to it. There is an acute shortage of priests in certain parts of both Flanders and Wallonia (the French-speaking part).
