As a family we have been collecting the LEGO Winter Village sets as they come out (one per year).

It is clear that LEGO will never release a church because it is against their company policy (or so it seems). So, I have been designing my own... Of course, one thing led to another, and so I also started developing a LEGO model based on the church in the parish I grew up in: Heilig Hart in Ekeren-Donk, Antwerp, Belgium (in English: Sacred Heart).
