We have a typical gym and I need to transform it for a beautiful, elegant Christmas tea. The clincher is we have no budget, so any suggestions?

Use (borrow) a pre-lit artificial tree (I would go with the white lights as I think they are more elegant). See if you can borrow enough artificial poinsettias for table centerpieces. You could also wrap white lights around any support posts in the room. I assume the church has table clothes. Another idea for centerpieces would be a pillar candle with a little bit of greenery around them and maybe stick a few Christmas balls in the greenery.
Most of the things that you might use for decorations you should be able to borrow. First check to see if the church has any decorations. It may have a tree and so on. If not, ask around and borrow one. There may be vases or rose bowls in which you can put Christmas greenery (real or artificial) and Christmas balls.
You may be able to find a florist or a local store that would gift you with small centerpieces for the tables that can then be given away as door prizes.
