Excellent.  I really like the use of "useless" parts (like the bricks with
studs on sides) for decoration.  I see that you've also found a good
solution to the problem of how to build a good Lego cross---I'll see if it
scales well for my (much smaller) church.  The "rounded" bay via hinges
and a clever roof works very well, also.
