If you look carefully at the section that is in front of you, you will notice that a large semi-circular portion is slightly darker than the rest. This is were one of the Union cannonballs hit. When it was repaired different materials where used than in the original which gives it the darker appearance. The Union didn't hit the church, due to divine intervention or just their bad aim I'll let you decide.
