Ah, I see now. At first glance at the previous iteration I thought that it was just the stroke of a bell shape; I didn't read the bell within the arch. I do like that idea, actually, but this version does read more clearly. It looks great!
I'm not sure if this would be any better or not, but have you tried a solid stroke-color "cap" on the steeple? You could also widen the steeple a bit to make the bell even larger for clarity. (These are just "what if"s, though, not recommendations…it already looks great.)
