Probably not.

NFPA 1 "Hazard of Contents" are defined as High (with 5 levels), Ordinary or Low.

The only occupancies that have "low" rating are those primarily for storage of non-combustibles. A church is primarily an assembly occupancy and could not be rated as "low hazard", based upon the risks to numerous human occupants.

Types of occupancies other than "storage", even if incidentally storing non-combustibles, would qualify as an "ordinary" hazard, under the theory that some combustible materials will be introduced or hazardous operations conducted, or some psychological factor introduced in case of any fire or other emergency, thus requiring at least "ordinary" fire prevention and means of egress.
