I'll make two recommendations:

One, and most obvious, is, why in the world are you trying to do this yourself?! You admittedly have no experience in this area. There are professional sound contractors everywhere who have at least a modicum of familiarity with this. Seek them out and get their recommendations. Heck, maybe even write up a list of requirements and get quotes, or, better yet, find one who will help you write the requirements for a nominal fee.

Two, I was amazed by a system I saw in Montreux last summer (2016). There were a couple of DJs doing a dance gig in the open-air pavilion along the quai, and several hundred people wearing wireless headphones listening to the music! Ya oughta look into this sort of thing. Connectivity to hearing aids would be cool, too, but I suspect that most wearers don't have such connectivity available at their end.

Another observation... If there are parishioners with severe hearing loss and don't have hearing aids, maybe God will enlighten them to get them. ;)
