One Church's Secret to Saving Millions of Dollars After Tornado Damage
"When a tornado tore through our church campus, it caused millions of dollars of damage in less than 30 seconds and left us without a place to worship and minister.
Within the hour, we had a rep from Titus Insurance Group on-site helping to salvage what we could. Within 24 hours, we had a representative from our carrier on site, assessing damage and helping us find short-term solutions to continue to conduct ministry without interruption. With no real place in town to accommodate our congregation of 1,200, we rented a huge tent, sound equipment and chairs, which were in place for the following Sunday service.
Titus worked directly with our carrier to provide a speedy and fair settlement. This allowed our building to be repaired, for the replacement of personal property and coverage of all extra operating expenses due to the tornado.
In hindsight, our church leadership was very wise to partner with Titus for our insurance needs. As a result, our church has been able to reach even more people with the Gospel through a very difficult situation. Our secret to saving millions was hiring Titus Insurance."

"I have worked with the Titus Insurance Group for over 10 years at two different churches. Prompt, professional and personable are words that describe every interaction I’ve had with every individual at Titus. They understand ministry and the unique needs of the church and view themselves as a kingdom partner. I recommend them highly.”

"We have enjoyed several years of excellent advice, counsel and service from The Titus Insurance Group. They know the church market, understand the broader trends and are in a position to give us critical insights into areas of coverage that keep us adequately protected against risk of loss. Importantly, their excellence extends to their daily service. We have many requests for information that are consistently turned around promptly and accurately. We recommend the team at Titus. They are ministry-minded and will serve you well."

"Customer service is a huge priority for me when selecting companies to partner with. Since I began working with Angie Sink at Titus, I have never been so pleased with a company. They have guided our church in selecting the correct insurance products to insure that our church has adequate coverage. The entire team goes above and beyond their normal daily duties to make sure we feel valued as a customer. Without reservation, I would highly recommend Titus to other churches."

"Our agent made a point of connecting with our staff and elders, which helped connect us with the Titus team. He was on our campus several times and really stayed in touch with us. This was so valuable as we had a hail claim in 2011. Through that process, Titus was there for us and made us feel as though we were the most valuable client they had. I can’t recommend them enough."

"As a new church Business Administrator, the staff at Titus Insurance Group has made this transition easy in regards to insurance needs. The annual in-person review with my agents is an excellent personal touch. This meeting provides an opportunity to answer questions, discuss the direction of the church and how that relates to insurance coverage. These conversations have proven valuable as savings to the church has been identified, as well as risk opportunities that were immediately addressed. The quick and professional response from Titus Insurance Group is much appreciated and why Christ Church highly recommends their services."

"Who likes to get a call or visit from their insurance people? I DO! The Titus Insurance Group has turned my dreaded experience of talking about insurance into a positive experience! Titus is extremely knowledgeable, patient and thorough in explaining insurance coverages in terms I can understand. Their response time to questions is amazingly quick and always accurate. They show a genuine interest in you as an individual, your job and the events and growth of the church. You feel like you are someone special to them. I value their integrity and I trust them. They are special and unique in the world of insurance and I feel blessed to be a client."
