You haven't had much dealings with church internal politics, have you? The pastor may have to deal with a board of deacons or elders. Keeping a firearm concealed may be the trade-off to get any armed security. We don't know, and it's not our place to ask. The criterion presented was that concealment is a requirement. IMHO, responses that start off with "Don't worry about concealment ..." aren't answering the question, and are worthless in the context of this discussion.

A good friend of mine is the de facto head of the security team at his church. The pastor has given him an impossible assignment: make the church safe, but we don't want armed security.

Yeah, they really do think that way.
