    Any idea what type of church this is? There is a star of David, a Chi Rho cross, and a banner about the birth of Christ

      Looks like a star of David hanging in picture one, possibly a Synagogue.

      Possibly used by more than one denomination , military?

      There’s the Christian Chi Ro emblem on the left too. I agree about non-denominational. The words to left and right are unclear ..... but is Service there?

      Difficult to guess without further detail (any chance of a closer photo of either half of the original image?) but definitely not anything Roman or Anglican (Catholic or Episcopal) and likely not Jewish either despite the Star of David. "Non-Denominational" is a remote possibility (but not a terribly common thing in the time frame this seems to indicate, unlike today) but I'd think this is more likely some variety of "Protestant" due to the front/center arrangement of the speaker's platform and podium. It would also appear that the building is 'decorated for X-mas' as pictured, another clue tending to make me guess it is/was a basically protestant branded place.
