Not to be a wise guy but I have seen some pretty large churches and some pretty small so that is fairly ambiguous. And just depends on what is going it, are there going to be a bunch of class rooms, if its a big church what type of sound system/lighting system are they going to have some are basically a recording studio/concert hall. More info may help....and you do not want a customer saying well you said it should only be 200A and now its 400A + service...this is just my opinion good luck Oh and a church general lighting load is only 1VA per sq ft so 11 could be a good guess if you are in a pinch and not going to be held to it either way
