When I attended regularly we did not have any plans in place, any guidance, nothing. I did mention to the pastor a friend teaches carry permit classes, ladies only classes, kids classes on gun safety, church security, and half a dozen other classes and they were not interested. We had a church shooting not 10 miles from us a couple years back and still nada.
I carry if dressed as a matter of course, all day, every day, even if I don’t leave the house. I do know at least 4 members that carried to church, but they all had pocket pieces and nothing full sized. I guess it’s better than nothing, but against someone determined I prefer either my Glock 17 or 5” 1911. Prayerfully nothing will happen to make them regret their decisions.
I’m planning to start going again and they have a new pastor and I’ll give it a whirl with him and see if he is more receptive and willing to at least give it some thought. Either way, if I’m there I’ll always be appropriately armed and capable.
