Founder Sheepdog Church Security

Brad Parkhurst

Safety Team Ministry Leader, Movement Christian Church

Taking the courses at Sheepdog Church Security Academy has helped us develop and improve all these things that pertain to keeping the flock safe. Our Mission is to create a safe environment, so attendees can worship our God and don't have to concern themselves with safety. Our team acts like greeters, smiling and welcoming everyone that comes in while maintaining an increased level of awareness.

Onix Garcia

Director of Security, West 58th Street Church of God

This program is the best training program for church security, it has a vast variety of training. My entire team is certified with Sheepdog, and anyone that joins the team has to be certified first before they can participate in the team. After 32 years with the MetroHealth Police Department, I found Sheepdog's training to be exceptional and perfectly suited for our church's needs.

Tom Beaty

Sagebrush Church, Santa Fe, NM

The training I received from Sheepdog enhanced my previous Law Enforcement training. Sheepdog training refreshed my memory and gave me additional tools to work with. First Aid, natural disasters, active shooters, teamwork, de-escalation of individuals, radio codes, firearms training, emergency response plans, and so much more.
