My church and I will be hosting the first session of the Treasure Valley Safety Ministry Coalition. We will meet in Star, Idaho to discuss current topics of interest to safety ministries in our area, give intelligence about that may be of concern to our ministries and have a roundtable discussion.
I'm in South Central Oregon, north of Klamath Falls and south of Bend, Oregon. I am interested in getting together with a church or churches who have an active church security team.
I’m the Safety Team leader for my church in California. There are 6 medical professionals and 6 safety team members. I very much appreciate the information and advice provided here. I’m going to bump up to a paid membership here.
We are moving forward with Clark County Safety Ministry Coalition here in Las Vegas Nevada (date will be announced soon). It will be after our April 12-13th church protectors conference. Jimmy Meeks will be attending. We are doing everything we can to get the attention of the churches in the community, but it is it's own battle ground. We need prayer here. Appreciate your encouragement and guidance. Thank you Keith. Blessings bro!
x We are in the Fort Worth, TX area. Not a whole lot of shared info concerning church safety issues. Would like to hear from someone in the area about this type of collaboration of ideas and tactics.
We are in Wichita Kansas. We've had multiple security teams visit and have tried to form some sort of quarterly meet, but haven't had much success lately. Be glad to work with others to meet and share.
Team - We are a small (140 family) Greek parish in Palm Desert, CA and would appreciate connecting with other parishes in the Coachella Valley to discuss church security and local security concerns.
Never thought I’d be posting a note like this 30 years ago. Have seen the need and unfortunately. Lord knows our sheriff and deputies are dedicated to our safety while also knowing he helps those who help themselves.
Keith, we would like to start this in our area. Could you please do a short video on the type of content that we need to cover for a gathering like, or put it in the comments below?
Mr. Wilson, I’m interested in the same information. However, I believe Keith can send out an update to this article with some topics in bullet point format? I hope he responds to your question.
Keith we have been having quarterly meetings here in Teller County Colorado for a couple of years. We have a group of 12 churches and each church sends at least one security team member to these meetings. In our meetings we also have an assigned deputy sent by the local Sheriff and an assigned PD guy that is sent by the Chief. We use many of your newsletter and videos as training topics. It’s been good to share between the churches. Keep up the good work Keith.
Great idea to hold a monthly information sharing session to exchange ideas, network and provide intel to area church safety teams. I participated in many with the local police and prosecutors for years.

Thanks for the support Art!
I am the sole security person for a very small church in Libby (NW) Montana and would be interested in meeting with others in NW Montana/North Idaho.

I’m down in Plains - I’m recovering from surgery, so give me a couple of weeks, but I’m in a similar situation.

Here in the Puget Sound area. I'm ramping up security at my congregation would be interested in a security-focused group.

Would definitely be interested in doing this in the Northern Nevada area.
We’re in Palm Bch Co FL… anyone interested in starting a chat about church security issues?
Love everything you are doing Keith. Will be praying for your upcoming meeting.
Reading these responses...looks like a Nationwide Church Security Conference would be a big hit. What say you?
