WOW. Nice church.
Well first you need a video capture card to get the video off the camera into the PC. IM assuming this is not a Digital video camera. Capture cards are not to expensive if you get a dedicated capture card. Popular capturecard/tv tuners/video cars are the ATI All in Wonders. BUt thats overkill for this job.
ATI makes a standalone capture card that should be under $100 so its well within your 'no mater what it costs' budget.
Once you ahve the capture card working you plug your camera into the capture card and you dump the video from the camera to the hard drive. Make sure you have a big drive. 80-100+gig so you can keep a few sundays worth of video on the hard drive.
From there you can use any number of video editing packages to edit and package the video how you want. Add graphics and transitions and such.
Then you can use the same capture card (most have video output aswell) to output the master to tape. Or you can encode it into avi, mpeg, wmv, mov format.
