About this Event

Protecting the Flock Starts with You

Houses of worship are built on peace—but they must be protected with purpose. In today’s evolving threat landscape, churches, synagogues, mosques, and other faith-based organizations face rising concerns about violence, disruption, and vulnerability.

Securing Sacred Spaces is a 2 hour event designed to equip religious leaders, volunteers, and safety teams with the tools they need to prevent, respond to, and recover from potential threats.

Key Topics Covered:

✔️ Recognizing Pre-Attack Indicators – Identify behavioral red flags and warning signs before violence occurs ✔️ Church Insurance - What your church insurance does and does not cover

✔️ Legal and Liability Awareness – Understand the laws governing the use of force, concealed carry, and church protection ✔️ Criminal and Civil Liability - How to protect yourself from the legal system

✔️ Emergency Action Plans – Develop evacuation, lockdown, and medical response procedures.

✔️ Church Security Plan Examples – Walk through real-world plans that work for churches of all sizes.

 Who Should Attend?

✅ Pastors, priests, rabbis, imams, and religious leaders ✅ Church and synagogue safety ministries ✅ Ushers, greeters, and hospitality volunteers ✅ Church security guards and armed protectors ✅ Faith-based school administrators and staff ✅ Law enforcement liaisons and first responders ✅ Any member committed to protecting their place of worship
