Looked but didn't see a post. Anyone have a church that has a gun club?

[KokomoDave]

I did a concealed carry topic presentation at a local gun club that is in a big church in Kokomo on Wednesday . It was well received by the attendees. I look forward to the next meeting. Anyone have any similar experiences at their place of worship?

Not yet !!!!!

I've never known the Catholic Church to be very gun friendly.

 

[myhightechsec]

we had an informal group that did two shoots a year but the guy heading it up has been super busy for a while so it has gone fallow for now.

Dont count on the Methodists. They are anti gun by doctrine.

Makes me embarrassed to be a Methodist.

EDIT: At the risk of starting a nasty debate, at least Im not a UCCer. I actually pulled my kid out of an alternative to scouts because its hosted in a UCC church and they had the no guns signs conspicuously posted everywhere. While the Methodists are anti gun in doctrine (but some churches ignore it), these jackwagons take it to a whole 'nother level of cray; "we will actively say you cant carry a gun because killing is wrong while simultaneously participating in pro abortion rallies." SMH

Our church has a lot of shooters in it. We have armed security during services. We tried to get a Christian gun club/bible study going but it never really took off.

Not Free Methodist's. Even our pastor packs a .45 and is an NRA instructor

I believe you are talking about United Methodist, I also thought last spring they voted to stop being pro abortion.

 

[Cameramonkey]

Yes, UMC. Granted I know a few UMC churches that ignore the official church policy on guns. In a search for a new UMC church, I have yet to find one as openly anti gun as other churches. And it was the Unitarians, not the Church of Christ that were doing the marches. I had too many Cs and not enough Us in that abbreviation.


And the anti gun sign was in the Episcopal church. I was all kinds of confused last night. Because the UUCer invited us to a liberal scouting alternative that meets in an Episcopal church. And it was 2 years ago, so hence the confusion. Clear as mud?

EDIT: and I recall after one of the mass shootings the church rolled out their anti gun policy with much fanfare as if the policy would actually prevent shootings. It was all over the news and interwebz.

No gun club at our church, but a great many in the congregation are packing, and there is a formal security staff...

Change your parish then. Most of the parish priests I know in Indy have no trouble allowing you to CC at Mass...some parish churches in the southern end of the Archdiocese even have a couple of turkeys shoots every year for fundraising.

I'm certain our church in Bloomington is full of aniti's.

Not going to happen at this point for family reasons. Even if the pastor is gun-friendly, there is a school physically attached to the church. My comment was of a more general nature from my experience within numerous parishes in all parts of the country and even military parishes.

I wish my church had a shooting group/club.

Then again, there are only a precious handful of people in my church that know I have anything to do with firearms - and I'm OK with that.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

A year or so ago, I was in a conversation with some guys from the Avoca Baptist Church where they talked about their church's shooting club or get-togethers or whatevery you want to call it. But they were doing it as a church function. Ours doesn't have one but I know a number of us are..."enthusiasts".

 

[mikebol]

My friend goes to Brookville Road Christian Church on the east side of Indy and he organizes their instructional gun group, hold shooting training periodically, etc. If you want to talk with him, PM me and I'll give you his contact information.

The Branch Davidians down in Waco had one but the ATF and FBI objected.

It's BLOOMINGTON

 

[ChristianPatriot]

We have a small church full of CC'ers (and one unapologetic OC'er ) and an informal armed security. Lots of enthusiasts in the church. It's nice.

Pentecostals love guns. Heck, my Pastor even packs
