After recent shootings at a nearby church, other congregations are becoming concerned. The danger obviously includes smaller gatherings, not just large groups.

That's why the Liberty in Christ Church at 4745 Leanna Road is offering a free class from the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security at 6:00 o'clock this coming Wednesday night, November 1, 2017.

The one and a half hour program teaches how to be prepared for sudden violence--surviving the active shooter. It provides vital information about mitigating the threat posed by individuals who carry out acts of violence, along with information that addresses intervention, clarifies the role of those involved, and how to effectively respond to the problem.

Reservations are needed. For information, phone 615-347-8234 or 615-519-6685.
