Thank you for visiting Serving Watchmen.
Many churches struggle to sustain an effective security program. We develop policies, train people, and build the programs leaders need to protect their church.
We are a Biblically-based and ministry-focused training company specializing in training faith-based organizations and volunteer church safety teams.
We teach Best Practices so you can reduce your liability and be prepared.
We grew tired of seeing churches create more liability for themselves by having poor training. So, we developed the Serving Watchmen Curriculum that fixes the three primary problems
-
Inconsistent training (not having team members on the same page).
-
Unsustainable training (it started well, but now you have too much turnover).
-
Unattended training (you can’t get people to show up to your training).
People Love Safe Churches!
Check our calendar on this site to attend a training in your area. If you would like to book a training or if you have any questions please contact us.
