I recently left a church cause they were not able to attain enough security team an I did not sign up to be the only armed security. I was packing two pistols an back up mags for both. I could not take the pressure of that responsibility. The team has a leader an I did not want his job. He did not carry. I'm now at a church with a sincere team. Glad I left. God did not call me to lead a team. Only help an be aware. The best shot one takes is none at all.

Was this a Christian church?

Also: Fairfax County, VA police reported similar instances for 2 separate churches - On January 15, 2025, three men entered the building and began to take pictures. These men attempted to walk around the exterior and interior of the property but did not successfully get further into the buildings. In one instance they were questioned by a church staff member. During this time, only one of the men spoke and asked questions about the location's security system. They specifically asked if the cameras could "live stream" and if they were monitored consistently. The two other men were seen taking pictures and recording video. After their questions were not directly answered, they entered a Lexus SUV and left.

My contact at my local police dept. confirmed they were middle eastern.
