The cross fixed boldly in the midst of the tower for all to see, shouting out to all that this building belongs to the followers of Christ.

There is one thing about these older buildings and that’s even though they didn’t have the technology we have today they still knew how to build them to last. I’m not sure if the more modern structures will stand the test of time.
