Security and Faith. In this three-part series, host Rev. Tracy Howe, Team Leader and Minister for FaithINFO and seasoned organizer invites panelists to engage community security issues. We live in a world of increasing vulnerability, charged public rhetoric, and more and more guns. Local congregations are encountering threats to persons and property, from their local churches where buildings are being vandalized and pastors being threatened to the greater community where white Christian nationalists are demonstrating against drag shows and pride festivals. What does security mean from a Gospel perspective? What can we build together towards a safety for all?

Security and Faith Episode III: Local Church Preparedness and Safety. Join Rev. Tracy Howe, Team Leader and Minister for FaithINFO at the National Setting and seasoned organizer as she speaks to local church pastors and lay leaders involved in local church preparedness and safety. Learn about the resources available and where imagination and faithfulness are coming together to fill in the gaps. What if a local church hosts a school? A food pantry? How do these public programs impact community safety in a world with increasing threats and vulnerability. How can we faithfully prepare and respond?
