I'm on the security team in our church and SOP is concealed carry. Open carry isn't exactly consistent with the tone or atmosphere of folks coming to worship and, like others, makes me wonder why someone would in the first place.
My church doesn't have an official policy about bringing in weapons to church, but they aren't discouraged. If someone walked in to church with an open carry weapon it would definitely get the security teams attention. If not deemed a threat, they would be politely asked to conceal the weapon or leave.
Just because I can doesn't mean I should.
