To the best of my recollection, a group of churches agreed to not allow concealed weapons in places of worship in accordance with Utah law. Each denomination “signed” on. This includes folks with valid concealed weapons/gun permits but I am sure it allows police officers to carry if they so choose. I seem to recall that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints asked it members with permits to refrain from carrying at meetings. This only applies to the state of Utah to the best of my knowledge as it meets a state law requirement. I should probably have researched this better to give a more correct answer.
I don’t recall if Utah is an open carry state.

Back to lurking.

RE: my question about carrying in Church.....I saw a notice on our Church bulletin board saying our Church was “gun free” and I’ve always wondered about that....it does NOT make me feel safe....and my husband ALWAYS forgets to carry when we go.....(we don’t carry the guns much anyway - they’re mostly just at home)...although, we might think about doing so more now....
