Celebrating Partnerships, Purpose, and a Growing Movement

On Friday night, June 13th, supporters and first responders gathered for an unforgettable evening at the Real Hope for Heroes event—and what a night it was!

Held at the stunning Park Place LTD, the venue exceeded all expectations and provided the perfect setting to cast vision, celebrate progress, and rally support around the Mission First Alliance movement.

A special thank-you goes to Jeff Rogers for his generous partnership and ongoing support. His commitment to the mission helped make this evening possible.

Throughout the evening, guests were invited to learn more about the heart behind Mission First Alliance—a growing movement to bring real hope to the 4.6 million first responders and their families across the U.S. Attendees had the opportunity to hear the vision, connect with others who care deeply about this cause, and explore ways to partner with us moving forward.

It’s not too late to get involved.
You too can partner with us to bring hope, healing, and the message of Christ to our nation’s heroes. Join the mission at missionfirstalliance.com

Jeremy Wade
Jeremy Wade is the Executive Director of Mission First Alliance. He served for the Seattle Police Department for 13 years, but struggled with his identity in Christ vs his identity in the badge early in his career. After a few years on the department he fully surrendered his life to the Lord, which started an amazing journey that the Lord has been blessing along the way. While not free from challenges like the Seattle riots, and many critical incidents, Jeremy could see God’s hand in directing his paths. On the Seattle PD, Jeremy was awarded Officer of the Year, and Medal of Valor. He worked in patrol, in the training unit, as a peer support coordinator, and assisted in developing the department’s first wellness unit. He co-founded the SPD Beds for Kids Program with Ryan Gallagher, which continues on today. Jeremy also served as the executive director of the Seattle Police Chaplains Association and came alongside many other local and national first responder ministries. In 2021, Jeremy, his wife Ketryna, and four kids felt God calling them to move to Tennessee and step out in faith to do full-time ministry, supporting first responders nationwide. This led to serving as the Training & Development Coordinator for the Fellowship of Christian Peace Officers- USA until God started directing his path and opening doors to start Mission First Alliance.
