Why would a Church have a small coat rack? ?
The question they have to answer isn't really "why," is it?
If they do have one, for any reason they choose, or even for no reason whatsoever, then it's all good. And it's probably an easy issue for LE to resolve, if they feel the need - "Hey, CCoC church people, do you have a coat rack (or a whatcha-ma-doojie) in your front entrance?" One quick call and done.
