Thank God for this man and this church. My church has a well-trained and well-armed security team made up of church members (many of whom are ex-military). Plus, no telling how many regular members carrying during any given service (this is Texas, lol).

Would-be criminals need to think long and hard about attacking a church in this day and age. It may not work out so well for them...

we Catholics don't worry about security...we believe in being nice even to our attackers.

..saying that tongue in

my mom always told the story of the KofC men going up to where some KKK types were burning a cross on top of Polish Hill in Binghamton NY decades ago and beat the crap out of them....my mother never lied...

it would be wonderful to be part of a church where the men took a very active role as leaders and protectors...

I carry to church at all times, and as you said ,no telling how many other members do also. Along with the uniformed officer we have at the front door during every service.
