I have to disagree with that.  The needs of a church PC usually cover
things like word processing and keeping track of records.  A 286 will
fit the bill quite nicely, and will cost very little.  As long as your
not trying to use windows, and assuming you want to upgrade the XT,
a 286 will do quite nicely.  (Well, Windows will work on the 286, but
what's the point.)

If you _do_ have the money (and/or need) to upgrade to a 386, don't
bother with the 386SX!  A 386DX will cost very little more, and will
run quite a bit faster.  The 286 gives you pretty good bang for the buck,
as does a lower end 386 (at the higher end, you might was well get the
486SX).  The 386SX is not really worth looking at anymore, unless you
can find a good used motherboard really cheap.
