Your safety is highly important to us, and we want you to know that because we care, we’re prepared.
For your safety, police officers and security staff are onsite every Sunday and during weekday events. We also have an EMT onsite for medical emergencies, and our campus is equipped with updated security cameras and emergency alert systems.
Should an emergency occur while you are on our church campus, please follow the directions of security personnel and the guidelines below.
Campus Map
Please familiarize yourself with our campus and take note of exits near you while onsite.
Fire
Our campus is fully equipped with fire alarms and sprinkler systems throughout each building. If the fire alarm comes on, please evacuate the building and proceed beyond the fire lanes to make room for arriving emergency personnel.
- Building A (Worship Center & Atrium): Evacuate using the nearest marked fire exit.
- Building B (Multi-Purpose Room, Offices & Classrooms): Evacuate using the nearest marked fire exit. Student classrooms will be evacuated to the south near the Willow Pond neighborhood.
- Building C (Children’s Classrooms): Our staff will evacuate all children from Building C to the athletic fields on the north side of campus. Please do not attempt to enter Building C during evacuation; our staff will reunify families once everyone is evacuated safely outside.
- Portables: Evacuate to the south.
Inclement Weather
In the event of severe inclement weather while our campus is occupied, such as a tornado warning, please follow staff directions to a secure interior location, such as the Multi-Purpose Room.
Hostile Intruder
In the event of an active threat such as a shooter, keep these three courses of action in mind:
Run
Whenever possible, flee away from the sound of gunfire. Evacuate the building or area as quickly and safely as possible. The key is being aware of possible escape routes. Once away from danger, call 911 and provide as much information as possible.
Hide
If there is no safe escape route, hide. Find a room or area that provides some protection. Turn out the lights, silence your phone, lock the door, and barricade the entrance as much as possible by stacking furniture in front of any access point. Then, call 911 and tell the dispatcher who you are, where you are, and what you have seen or heard.
Fight
If you are too close to the threat to run, or you have tried to hide but the threat is getting close, prepare to fight. Look for anything that could be used as a weapon to defend yourself, such as scissors, fire extinguishers, etc. Remember, should you have to go on the attack, use speed, strength, surprise, and aggression to overcome your opponent.
