For the initial page load you just need to test and render if
appropriate on the initial page load.

<div id="church">
  <% if @household.zip != xxxxx and @household.zip != yyyyy %>
      <%= render :partial => "church_select %>
  <% end %>
</div>

You need to change the render :nothing in your controller to render an
empty string or partial to empty the content of the church div when
appropriate.

HTH,
Bill
