I'm thinking ProShow Gold, which is a slideshow program that can import
video clips as well, and can work in any resolution. You can let it
play, or manually advance slides/clips, or pause the show at any point
by hitting the space bar. Output programs are executables, and require
no software on the Church's computer to open and show.
