As a community of believers, we need to recognize how vulnerable any church can be to the potential for sexual abuse or harm to happen.

Safe Church Ministry shares a customizable Social Media Policy from Protect Young Eyes, an organization helping families, schools, and churches create safer digital environments.

May 7th is the National Day of Prayer in the United States. For Safe Church, prayer is at the foundation of our work. We want to invite you into our circle of prayer—today, and every day.

On Wed May 27 at 12 pm Eastern, Safe Church hosted a webinar with Chuck DeGroat, author of When Narcissism Comes to Church: Healing Your Community From Emotional and Spiritual Abuse. 

Safe Church encourages churches that are working with ex-offenders to develop a covenant of conduct with the individual. Included are sample policies and a discussion about the importance of this process.

 Ruth Everhart, Presbyterian pastor, and author of The #MeToo Reckoning discussed how too often, churches have been complicit in protecting those who abuse and in maintaining cultures of secrecy, shame, and silence.

Child abuse prevention begins at home, and churches, schools, and the entire community all have a part to play. It's up to all of us to protect our children from abuse.
