The purpose of the Life Safety Team (LST) is to display a safe and secure presence on church property, or at certain off-site events if required, and to be prepared for any incidents that may arise. This is a very unique ministry because the LST interfaces with people that others might possibly shy away from. In concert with other ministry teams (i.e. Hospitality etc.) the LST offers everyone who steps foot on Our Lady of the Pines property, or attends an event, a sincere greeting of welcome and openness. This type of greeting can diffuse a bad situation and often leads to a great ministry opportunity and a way ahead for individuals looking for help. The LST should be a primary focal point for any questions or concerns at our church.
