Upcoming Webinars:

November 18: Local Church Insurance: Trends and Best Practices

Presenters: Bjorn Waldron, Vice President, NCG Insurance Agency & Paul Eichelberger, Conference Treasurer
Description: Your church serves as a beacon of hope and community. But a single unexpected event—a fire, a liability claim, or even a data breach—can threaten your ability to serve. Good stewardship means preparing for all possibilities. 

This webinar will provide church leaders with practical, accessible information on how to use insurance and risk management to protect your congregation. We'll simplify the complex world of insurance and focus on practical strategies to: 

• Secure your building and grounds 

• Protect your staff, volunteers, and attendees 

• Ensure financial stability after a crisis 

• Understand the specific coverage your church needs 

• Focus on your ministry, not your risks. Join us to learn how.
