The battlements are nice and I like the porch. The tracery, in the window, is an interesting pattern.

That said, I hate the blocky layout of this sort of Protestant church with a passion. If this were a school or a library it would work. As a church, it shows the ass-backward focus of Protestantism. There's a sanctuary, of sorts, in there somewhere, but it's not obvious from the outside. The focus isn't on worship, it's on yapping and indoctrination. The "education" section overwhelms what would be the central feature in a real church, rather than an "ecclesial community".

A very nice building, with good details, but as a church, it misses the target.
