Overview

Emergency evacuations may not be commonplace in churches. Nonetheless, having a plan for how to vacate your facility in an emergency is an essential facet of church safety. For most churches, fire will be the culprit in forcing an evacuation. But a gas or carbon monoxide leak, a natural disaster, such as a tornado or flooding, a bomb threat or violent intruder all may necessitate an emergency evacuation.
