Wish I would have been a reader 2 years ago when a man claiming to be a "Saint" entered out parish and confronted my wife in an aggressive manner for not having more outreach.
I stepped in of course and the situation escalated - safely (but loudly) got him out while others around retreated - that said, in hindsight, I should have deescalated. Haunts me - the situation with a mentally unstable person in a church setting with parishioners can go south quick. Learned the hard way, when loved ones are involved, emotions are tough to control.

PS - He had 2 warrants out on ghost guns and a restraining order we later learned. Got a RO on him as well.
Again - Excellent.
