"KEEPING YOUR CHURCH SAFE"

Book offers ideas, protocols and advice for church security in today's modern world

Louisville, KY (October 1, 2008) – Ron Aguiar, mega-church Director of Security, author and national speaker has released his first book entitled "Keeping Your Church Safe". This book serves as a blueprint for implementing security protocols and processes in churches of all sizes across the nation.

"In a world when a gunman can enter a church and go on a shooting rampage or a person can walk in and steal a child from the church nursery without any obstacles, we need to be sure that protecting our houses of worship is one of our top priorities", said Aguiar.

Keeping Your Church Safe suggests ways to protect every corner of a church building, its members, its employees and its volunteers. Chapters and topics within the book include risk management, vow to implement a medical program, how to protect the children of the church, protecting the church's money and dealing with protests and terrorism.

Bob Russell, retired Senior Minister for mega-church Southeast Christian Church (Louisville, KY) where Aguiar works, says, "Given the uncertain times in which we live and increasing threats to our churches, Ron has written a practical, thorough, easy-to-read book that should be a textbook for any church."

Aguiar has over 20 years of experience with a combined background in personal security, public law enforcement and church security. He offers leaders advice as well as real-life experiences and lessons learned throughout the course of his career.

"Addressing topics rarely discussed but realistic, this book is an excellent guide for church administrators, security managers, board chairpersons, volunteers or anyone serious about protecting our places of worship. It has been written as a result of years invested in "front line" experience." Major Bill Weedman (retired) Commander of Special Operations and Event Management Louisville Metro Police Department.

Books are now on sale at Amazon.com, Xulonpress.com and Barnesandnoble.com.

Ron currently serves as Director for Safety and Security for Southeast Christian Church's 18,000 member congregation in Louisville, KY. He resides in Louisville with his wife, Nancy and they have two grown children.
