First, sign out of everything. iTunes, etc. Then you need to boot to the recovery mode. To do that, restart and hold down Command+R until you are in the recovery mode. Then use Disk Utility to wipe the drive. You can also re-install OS X in recovery mode. You can do that yourself, or let the church do it so they can use their own Apple ID and set it up properly.
