Many of the churches now have a reputation of money makers IE there advertising of the parties. Again its a very old rule that only reared its head because of the churches new type of membership campains.

Hosts of parties can use only one TV that is no bigger than 55 inches, according to a league attorney.

That reads to me that any host, not just Chruch's and organizations are not allowed to show the game on anything larger then 55".
Of course I also think that the Church's are doing it more because a lot of Church's now have technology to show it to a large group of people, so they say why not use it?
Really I see the rule as stupid. It isn't like it is keeping people from going to the game and there really are not NFL ran parties everywhere, so they don't lose anything in the deal.
