I think anyone who shows up for worship (assuming membership in the overall church) would be blessed, at least with the standard blessings.

Yes, by the "one augment per ability" rule that's been discussed lately.
I think this is actually unlikely to be an issue, as overlapping blessings tend to be special (one per service) and not common (all per service).

No, that's using the same ability twice in a contest.
