The church set on fire when Darry had come and taken the boys (Ponyboy and Johnny) to Dairy Queen after Ponyboy and Johnny had been living in the church for a few days. The boys had been living in the church after Johnny had murdered the Soc that had been trying to drown Ponyboy. They fled to Windrixville so that the fuzz (the police) could not find them.

When Darry, Johnny, and Ponyboy come back to the church, after going to dairy queen, they find that it is on fire (which was caused by Ponyboy or Johnny's cigarette) , and that there are still little children in the church. Ponyboy decides to go in to rescue the children, and Johnny is right behind him. Darry doesn't want them risking their lives, so he goes in after them to save the children. They all go to the hospital after that. Ponyboy and Darry are both completely fine, but Johnny is not quite as good as them. He is very burned, there is something wrong with his lungs, and his legs and back are paralysed. After that is when Ponyboy, Darry, the rest of the Greasers, and the Shepard Gang fight in the rumble against the Socs.

The author doesn't tell us how the church was burnt in the book but Johnny does state that he and Ponyboy might have dropped a cigarette while they were hiding out in the church from the fuzz/ the police.

Ponyboy and Johnny discuss quietly to each other when they see that the church is on fire, that they must have dropped a lit cigarette before they had left.
