Church Pack, by SimGoober
Across America, many communities are built around local churches. What ever the denomination, they tend to be a focal point for the culture in the area. I have never been very impressed with the Maxis "Houses of Worship", but always use them, as they provide city benefits. For that reason, I developed 4 new churches, to work in place of those. They do not replace the Maxis ones (which are still available), but work along side them. They are Hidden rewards, which will show up with an announcement once certain population levels are reached. Each has the same city benefits of of the corresponding Maxis one.

Notes about Nightlighting Effects
In order to see the nightlighting, you must install the EP1-Update 1 for Rush Hour/SimCity 4 Deluxe, and then afterwards, install the SC4-Update for nightlighting. Both can be found here. If this update isn't installed, you won't see any lighting effects on custom BAT buildings.
Note: Digital versions of the game already have both patches installed.
Disclaimer
The usage of this download is on your own risk. I try to test my lots extensively, so they should work properly, but errors may still exist. Feel free to modify the lots for yourself and show them in your City Journals, but please don't distribute them without asking first.
