Well, the point of this was, we wanted the Bach-Gounod version as an organ piece--not the song--as the prelude. One would have thought that could fly in an ELCA church where the pastor was fine with it.

The organist who refused to play it "because it is a Catholic song that worships Mary, and we Lutherans only worship Jesus" (the organist's exact words) had every right to refuse, just like I had every right to fire him for refusing.
