      I actually had a similar job when my wife asked me to set up
      public WiFi
      for her yarn shop (her office and mine are also on site).  What
      I ended up doing was to use two routers; the "outer" (public)
      router being connected directly to the Internet, and the inner
      (private) one connected to the outer one using NAS.  It works
      fine, except that my VOIP box has to be outside of both routers.

Using two routers is a reasonable approach, but it would cause me too much
duplication of equipment since I need to cover a large area.  I would then
need range extenders for each router.

Does the office network need to cover a large area? Depending on your church's needs, it might not even need Wifi at all.
