The church is not the one that pays the unemployment benefits...it's the state in which the worker worrks. In addition, most states allow churches an exempt status, meaning they do not pay a payroll tax to the state, thereby the worker may not be entitled in the first place.

If employer wants you to go to PT or take extended unpaid leave and you refuse does this nullify eligibility for unemployment benefits?

In this state, if you work part time, you do not get unemployment. If your employer wants you to take extended unpaid leave and you take it, you can get unemployment. You took leave because your boss asked you to. That choice is like, resign or I will fire you. If your boss will not hire you back immediately, this state gives you unemployment under those circumstances. If you refuse to take either option and you are fired, you can get unemployment. It is obvious that your boss is giving you the choice of take part time work or quit only is not putting it to you in quite those terms.
