Protecting Faith - Preserving Peace

I’m Justin Wodarck, Security Team Leader for a large Christian church in Northern Utah . Over years of study, training, and real-world experience, I’ve been blessed to help develop effective, ministry-minded security strategies for churches and widely-attended events.

My passion is helping the body of Christ create safe spaces where people can worship freely and confidently. Whether your church is just beginning to explore security or already has an established team, I’m here to serve — helping you build a program that reflects both wisdom and faith, balancing vigilance with the welcoming heart of ministry.
