Request for Support: Protection of our Churches
Dear Catholic friends 🙏🏽
As Catholics, we are called to protect and serve our communities, especially in times of need. Our churches are sacred spaces, but there are an increasing dangers we face. Some of which of which are vandalism, theft, trespassing, and even violence and arson.
With this in mind, I’m reaching out to you to help establish a Catholic security initiative, a network of trained, licensed, and faithful Catholics dedicated to safeguarding our parishes and communities.
I humbly seek your support with contributing any funds, even if it’s small it will go a long way to:
1. Recruitment & Training of new security officers, ensuring they are fully licensed and qualified.
2. Uniforms & Equipment: Providing officers with proper uniforms and essential gear for their duties.
3. Parish Support: Assisting parishes with the costs of hiring Catholic security guards.
4. Advanced Training: Offering additional training in physical intervention, self-defense, and de-escalation techniques to prepare guards for real-world scenarios.
By contributing to this initiative, you’re helping protect our churches and ensuring they remain places of worship, peace, and refuge.
Thank you, and may God bless you.
- Ave Maria!
