Customer Testimonial

“We have a personal relationship with our Lightwell agent. To have someone that we know and trust who takes care of us and cares about our congregation means the world to me. He genuinely cares. He takes a real interest in our well-being and wants to make sure that we are protected, should anything unforeseen happen.”

Craig Cabaniss

Lead Pastor, Grace Church, Frisco, TX

“On a Saturday afternoon, we had a situation with a pipe leaking. Our Lightwell agent was here - literally within minutes of us calling. She walked us through the whole process and helped through all the details. As a result of that, we had a cleanup company here within hours, and we were able to have church the very next day.”

Jon Ferguson

Lead Pastor, Anderson Hills Church, Cincinnati, OH

“I don’t really think about insurance that much because we feel protected and have a Lightwell agent who’s in constant communication with us. I’m thankful we have an agent who freely shares information back and forth with us on a regular basis, and that’s the way it ought to be.”

Scott Anderson

Executive Pastor, Scottsdale Bible Church, Cave Creek, AZ

“Our Lightwell agents understand our mission and the needs of our district and our local churches. For example, we were holding a youth conference where thousands of students were coming together, and we wanted to provide a safe environment by requiring background checks for all the volunteers. Our agent quickly connected us to a local service who provided these screenings, which was a fantastic help to us. You will not be disappointed in the service you’ll receive from Lightwell.”
