Potential rental across the street from a church. Help requested

In my search for my first rental, I've found an enticing home. There's just one thing. It's right across the street from a church and down the street from another one. It's located in a good neighborhood, but I have no idea how being across from a church would affect the way potential tenants look at it or how that could possibly affect its appreciation relative to the rest of the neighborhood. 

Do any of you have experience investing in properties next to a church? What was your experience? Is it something you'd steer clear of? Any input is greatly appreciated.

@Blair Nye, I have had buyers look at houses next to and across from churches in a very favorable manner. I'm in Oklahoma, but the majority of people would not have any negative connotations about being across from the church except for the occasional traffic.
