If we had the time, we would invite you over and tell you in detail every single miraculous move of God that we have seen over the past year. We could recount to you every time God has filled a need, often through the hands of the very people reading this post. We could share every time we saw the hand of God open a door that we could have never opened on our own. For the sake of time, we’ll hit the highlights of 2024, so you can rejoice with us how the Lord has moved.

Nearly 120 Alliance Members in 27 states and Canada and growing!!!

We hosted three amazing Leader’s Summit Retreats in Florida, Arkansas, and Idaho.

We put on our first National Networking Conference.

We have continued our monthly virtual gatherings and watched the Lord work in miraculous ways.

We were invited to the National Day of Prayer in Washington D.C.

We were given the opportunity to drive the “For King + Country” band around Chattanooga and share our hearts and mission with the Smallbone brothers. Joel, Luke and Josh Smallbone gave Mission First Alliance over 80 tickets for first responders to attend their live concerts in 3 different states.

We hosted a booth and attended the Global Leadership Summit in Chattanooga, TN. The Lord is stirring in the hearts of leaders, organizations, chaplains and first responders, and the alliance is growing because of it.

We could fill pages and pages with incredible stories made possible because of your partnership, but for now we will highlight two.

“NOW is the time for me to step up and sprint after men. I feel so led to share the Gospel with men in uniform. So, I got on my knees and He spoke so loud and clear, I met with four men last night and asked them to join me in a discipleship group to become Kingdom men! One stepped forward to me and stated, “I’ve been waiting on you for this, I’m 100% in!” With that, I have prayed and prayed and God continues to show me and convict me, to just be obedient. So, if the offer still stands, I would be honored to discuss the duties and responsibilities of being the representative of Alabama for Mission First Alliance.” – Lt. Bradley Shaw (Houston County Sheriff’s Office).

Bradley met Jeremy and was introduced to Mission First Alliance during a conference hosted by another alliance member last year. It was there Jeremy encouraged Bradley to live out his faith and follow after Jesus. With this encouragement from Jeremy and others, Bradley pursued the Lord and watched God work in his life both on and off duty. He has since baptized family members, traveled on his first mission trip to Uganda, and attended our first National Networking Conference with his wife. God is “fanning into flame” (2 Timothy 1:6) a desire and burden to see more first responders have Real Hope in Christ, and he is no longer alone in the effort. He is now connected within the alliance and excited to step into this role of becoming one of our first regional representatives for the state of Alabama.

“Mission First Alliance has been a tremendous asset to our organization — I looked back and saw that through the Alliance’s networking events I was able to present the REBOOT approach to 33 new first responder ministry leaders in the last year that I would not otherwise have met. And we already see fruit from these connections. I know of 4 new courses that will start early in 2025 with the potential for that number to grow significantly over the year. When you consider each of these groups can provide real Christ-centered hope and healing to 20+ responder families each year, you can begin to see some of the multiplying impact. I tell anyone who will listen that joining Mission First Alliance is one of the best things I have ever done to help get the word out about our courses.” – Scott McPherson (REBOOT Recovery).

REBOOT Recovery along with many other organizations are beginning to see the exponential, Kingdom impact of working together, and being united for a purpose (1 Cor. 3:7-9). As a result, more first responder families are being exposed to the Gospel. Only God!!

Through the work of Almighty God and with the support of our faithful contributors, sponsors, and volunteers more first responders are being impacted! To God be the Glory! Great things He has done!
