Why Church Security Matters
Is Your Church or House of Worship a Soft Target?
Most churches today are underfunded, understaffed, and unprepared.
Security can be an afterthought. Until something happens. By then, it’s too late. And the cost goes beyond legal bills and lawsuits. It’s measured in lives.
At Kearnan Consulting Group, we’ve seen this too often. So we built a set of FEMA-compliant security plans designed specifically for churches and houses of worship.
These aren’t theories. They’re proven, tested, and backed by OSHA and the National Fire Protection Association.
Here’s what you get:
- Emergency Operations Plan. For your board, attorney, insurer, and leadership team. Policy-level clarity that protects everyone.
- Emergency Response Plan. Step-by-step directions your staff can follow in a crisis.
- Safety Response Team Manual. What to do. Who does it. How it’s done. With zero confusion.
- Training Plan. Includes training objectives, after-action reports, and an annual training calendar.
- Family Reunification Plan. One goal: Account for every person, fast.
Every plan is vetted by pros in emergency management, law enforcement, fire, EMS, and private security. No guesswork. No loopholes.
Prevention Beats Reaction — Every Time
Most churches don’t think they need a plan, until they wish they had one.
Get the plan. Train your team. Protect your people. Because nothing is more costly than being unprepared.
Church Safety Isn’t Optional
When innocent people are attacked while praying — in churches, synagogues, mosques, and schools — it’s a wake-up call.
Places of worship are supposed to be sanctuaries. Today they’re soft targets.
Our religious freedom is the bedrock of democracy. But it’s under threat from hate-fueled violence.
If you lead a house of worship, the time to act is now.
Church Security Solutions from Kearnan Consulting Group helps you prepare and protect.
We guide you through threat and vulnerability assessments, grant applications, funding justifications, and emergency response plans.
Because when safety is an afterthought, tragedy is inevitable.
Your Reliable Security Partner
We must seize every opportunity to denounce hate-motivated violence, and in doing so we protect the value of freedom of expression, the hallmark of democracy. Freedom of religion, freedom to pray, freedom to gather and worship, human dignity is the very lifeblood of our democracy.
We will review your security plan at no charge to you - Don't Hesitate to Reach Out!

Safety Planning: A Must for Faith-Based Groups
In an increasingly complex world, faith-based organizations must recognize the foreseeability of risks, including natural disasters, health crises, and security threats. Failing to prepare for these risks exposes the organization to significant legal and financial liabilities. Without a written safety response plan, the organization may be seen as deliberately indifferent to the well-being of its congregants and staff, which can lead to the denial of insurance claims and increased exposure to civil lawsuits for negligence. In the event of an incident, the absence of a documented plan could be interpreted as a failure to meet the standard of care expected, making the organization vulnerable to costly legal actions. Investing in a robust safety response plan today is not just a matter of prudent stewardship; it is essential for protecting the organization’s mission, assets, and the people it serves from foreseeable risks and potential legal repercussions.
