No. We never write "gonna." We write "going to."

Usually, when people make this mistake, they are thinking of the more common "going to" before a verb (or "going" before an infinitive.

I'm going to study geometry next year. In your sentence, "to" is a preposition and "church" is the object of the preposition.

So, you are confusing the two uses of "to."
