I mean, even if it wasn't property of the church it wouldn't be as simple as that. You could ask this question about everything - if a museum receives substantial grants to operate, is it still within the decision of its owner to do with it as they please, or not? If the money was given without any specific restrictions then I'd say yes, it is entirely within their view.
