Well you were at church! Should've just said you were really sorry to hear that and suggested all of you to pray for him together!

Not your fault OP, You weren't aware of this. I'm sure you said something in the line of 'I'm sorry to hear that'. He should understand.

You set yourself up for something you had no clue would happen. Don't be so hard on yourself.
