Whats the size of the building? Really, anything longer than 5ft should do.

I would suggest a piano that is around the 7' range. You need an instrument that will have enough power to fill a large space when packed with people.

The accoustics of an empty room change dramatically when when filled up with bodies.

You could rent one for a Sunday to test the acoustics and give you a picture of what a particular size would sound like.
