Church Security and Safety: Free Material-Bringing a Seminar to Your Area
I’m happy to offer free material in Word and some in PDF format, for your church’s current or new security and safety program. I hope you will use it to help your church keep the Big Picture in mind, rather than focusing only on response to a violent assailant–as important as that is for concern.
Let me know if you find it useful–I like to hear from people in places of worship!
You can safely save all of the documents to your computer and use them in our work. I appreciate attribution if you are going to use substantial material.
The first link is to “Worship Without Worry.” It is a compilation of several smaller documents, including a large section on inspecting a place of worship and a section about the security role of ushers and greeters (although it is most often used by security teams for training.)

Although I have a business that involves training and presentations on a wide range of organizational and professional topics, I am not entrepreneurial about it and generally wait to be asked rather than solicit business. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t let people know that as part of my business, I present very effective six hour seminars on the topic of whole-church security and safety. This link will tell you how to make that happen. The only change is that you should contact me through trowetraining@comcast.net.
Producing a Whole-Church Security and Safety Seminar with Tina Rowe
Seminar topics include everything in my material, but also provide a time of networking and positive messages about the fact that an effective, whole-church program is easily achievable by any place of worship.
The best way to have a seminar in your area is to host it or to bring a group of churches together to host, or to enlist the assistance of sheriff’s offices or police departments. It takes a few committed people to make it happen, but the result is always a success for every place of worship in a community.
Best wishes to all of you! Call me at (303) 324-3988 or contact me at trowetraining@comcast.net
