While this has minimized conflicts, it has also created a dysfunctional system that hinders necessary renovations, leaving the historic church in a dilapidated state. Recent discoveries and renovations have revealed significant insights about the site, yet tensions among the denominations continue to surface, highlighting the ongoing challenges of shared control.
