Call to action for all to bring to their church and prayer teams.

The National First Responder Day Prayer Initiative is on October 28. It involves churches across the country adopting a local police department, sheriff's office, fire station, EMS agency, or dispatch center and gathering for one hour to pray for the first responders who serve their community.

Churches choose a local agency, register with Mission First Alliance, coordinate the details with the agency, and invite their congregation to participate.

Prayer will focus on first responders, their families, and their agencies, including protection, strength, strong marriages and families, wise leadership, and a culture of care.

If your church would like to participate, you can learn more and register here:

The calling to be a First Responder comes at a cost many struggle with. Haunting thoughts, damaged relationships, a shortened fuse that seems to get shorter...
It's our mission to help first responders find that peace they didn't know they could have.
