Has your church sold an old pipe organ which required money for repair which the church didn't have and bought a new electronic substitute? I feel sorry that your church didn't raise enough funds required for its keeping in the old place. Maybe the organist didn't earn enough trust of the congregation when there was a chance. Or maybe the congregation were the wrong people to earn trust from? Whatever the case, not enough people cared. Despite all those technical innovations digital organ lacks a soul and that's something you can't replace no matter how megabytes will go into it's memory for the sound of one pipe. Try to treat it as pipe organ though: Avoid artificial transposition and do that transposing yourself. Avoid using Manual Bass button as your foot technique will slowly decay. These skills will serve you well in the future when you will have an opportunity to play a real pipe organ somewhere else. [Thanks to David]
