Church Property Insurance

Church property insurance coverage includes items such as your buildings, personal property, signs, property in the open, and fences. The insurance carriers we work with will automatically include coverage for standard losses such as lightening, wind, fire and hail, however, they will also provide coverage for many non-standard items, such as the following:

Equipment breakdown, including computers, boilers, and electrical equipment.
Newly acquired or constructed property (our limits exceed industry standards).
Pastor’s personal property.
Ordinance or law – building updates to meet with current building codes following a covered loss.
Stained glass windows.
Crime (Internal and External)
Inland Marine – equipment that is being transported
Personal Effects and property of others on a worldwide basis; for example, property lost on a mission trip.
Fire and security alarm upgrade – reasonable additional costs to upgrade your system when replaced due to a covered cause of loss.
Utility services interruption (direct damage and time element) for example, a storm knocks out usage of your utilities and causes damage.
Automated external defibrillators (AED).
Indirect loss, such as the loss of church income and tuition fees resulting from a covered peril, including a violent incident; e.g., a church intruder.
Earthquake sprinkler leakage.
Green upgrade coverage – pays for the reasonable additional costs to upgrade to more energy efficient and environmentally friendly building elements and appliances in the event of a covered loss.
Key person replacement coverage – provides for the reimbursement of recruitment expenses to replace a senior or executive pastor who dies in a work-related accident.

General Liability Insurance Coverage

Integrity Now Insurance Brokers will place you with a church insurance carrier that will provide your church with comprehensive church insurance coverage. General Liability coverage protects your church against claims of bodily injury or property damage arising out of its premises or operations for which the church may be found legally liable by a court. It also protects the church against its liability for personal and advertising injury offenses, such as libel and slander. Medical expense coverage is also included, regardless of fault.

Church insurance coverage protects against claims resulting from ministers’ pastoral counseling. This would be your pastors professional liability coverage. It also covers expenses resulting from a violent incident occurring during a church sponsored activity.

Those afforded General Liability protection include church members, employees, officials, staff, and volunteers acting on behalf of the church.

Religious Expression Coverage:

Religious Expression Coverage is now available to churches through one of our carriers. Most church insurance carriers do not offer this coverage which could present your church with a major financial hardship if this type of claim comes your way.

Mental or Emotional Injury Protection for Faith-Based Discriminatory Acts
Unfortunately, mental or emotional injury liability claims can occur for a variety of reasons. Alleged discrimination stemming from religious communications or religious activities can lead to possible mental or emotional injury allegations.

Religious Expression Coverage helps defend your church against claims for mental or emotional injury arising from acts others deem discriminating. You can continue to follow your faith-based worship with confidence, knowing you are covered for staying true to your principles as defined by your House of Worship’s written policies, tenants and doctrines.
