Special insurance policies for churchgoers
Churchgoers are in even greater hands with an Iowa-based insurance company that offers them special benefits and unique coverages.
When it was founded in the 1940’s, GuideOne Insurance offered lower insurance rates to people who didn’t drink alcohol. Now regular churchgoers get special blessings.
GuideOne president Jim Wallace says his firm’s FaithGuard policies now cover about 46,000 people who get church benefits. Most policyholders are in the Midwest and South.
The FaithGuard policy waives the deductible for an insured churchgoer involved in an accident while on the way to or from church. It also pays $750 toward tithing or church donations if the insured is injured in an accident involving the covered car. Medical payments are doubled if a person is injured in an accident to or from church.
Riiiiiight, that makes so much sense! On the bright side I can now say and understand “I was planning to levy a tithe on, but my car broke down without being insured with FaithGuard.” But I guess GuideOne would just call me cheap. PS: Force majeures AKA Acts of God probably not covered
