This even if the church no longer uses the copier? In other words, there is no longer any expense whatsoever to the copier dealer at this point.

If the customer/client failed to provide the notice required by the contract to cancel, the contract will renew for another term (e.g. another year) and will be enforceable against the client; the client will have to pay the amounts the client agreed to pay in the contract (e.g. for another 10 months, to the end of the year).
