Excellent posts. My workplace has drills on just about every conceivable catastrophe EXCEPT an armed nutjob. I view such a threat as more likely than most of what we drill on.

That said, I'd look at the architecture of the building, the layout, and possibly take a Sunday and discuss what to do in such an event with the congregation. This also provides the opportunity to explain your position and tie it in to your belief system for those that may be scratching their heads on it.

Bear in mind that the bad guy is probably planning on dying, and that he's coming with all the armament he can scrounge up. With the recent tradgedies we've seen, I personally want the most effective weapon to stop the threat immediately.

Best of luck.
