On the other hand., a church that's not had cooling before, I suspect they don't have high expectations and might prefer $ savings over perfection, at least in the first pass.
Which makes more sense to you?
CONSERVATION - turning your thermostat back and being uncomfortable. Maybe saving 5-10%
ENERGY EFFICIENCY - leaving your thermostat where everyone is comfortable. Saving 30-70%
DO THE NUMBERS! Step on a HOMESCALE.
What is comfort? Well, it AIN'T just TEMPERATURE!
Energy Obese? An audit is the next step - go to BPI.org, or RESNET, and find an auditor near you.

I was just thinking about 2 funerals I was at recently. One church was really miserable, no ac at all. The other had insufficient equipment to carry the load from a full house, but the cool air offered some relief.
Anything can be solved with unlimited $. But sometimes there is a balance point that incremental investment does not return justifiable incremental benefit.
And isn't going to church supposed to be penance for sins? Most would conjecture there's no AC in hell.

Ceiling fans will help too. Many times they make it "feel" cooler.
