FRONTLINE
Praise the Lord who is my rock. He trains my hands for war and gives my fingers skill - Psalm 144:1
WHO WE ARE
Frontline is a group for military personnel, firefighters, and law enforcement officers (Active, Retired, or Reserves) who are interested in forging relationships by sharing real-life stories with others that may have similar experiences.
OBJECTIVES
Frontline's objective is to put the Bible and the badges together, or the Bible between the bullets. Wherever you are, we will meet you there. Together we will work through it and we will do it together, whatever it takes.
Sacrifice
Each of us signed our names on the dotted line, but one thing we did not sign up for is having to deal with the unintended "Collateral Damage" alone or for the rest of our lives. We are not saying this is happening to everyone, however it is happening more frequently. Each of us have sacrificed something... Be it family, friends, our time or our bodies. Whatever you have sacrificed, let FRONTLINE be the first to say - THANK YOU FOR YOUR SACRIFICE!
OUR FOUNDER
Frontline was founded in 2024 by a Police Officer who served 35 years with the Los Angeles Police Department, including 17 years in patrol, 4 years in gangs, 4 years in vice (prostitution, gambling, alcohol enforcement) and 10 years in child abuse investigating the sexual and physical abuse, including the murder of children under the age of 11.
military
"They want you to go to war so they train you how to go to war. Then they don't train you on how to deal with it after the fact. They certainly didn't train me how to deal with it now and it will last with me forever."
- Sgt Maj. Tom Satterly US Army (Ret)
firefighters
"Having dealt with real firefighters, I know there are a lot of guys, who for the lack of a better term, become addicted to the grief because it has kept them connected to these guys that they feel responsible for having lost"
- Denis Leary
law enforcement
"There is no nice way to arrest a potentially dangerous combative suspect. The Police are our bodyguards, our hired fists, batons, and guns. We pay them to do the dirty work of protecting us. The work we are too afraid, too unskilled, or too civilized to do ourselves. We expect them to keep the bad guys out of our businesses, out of our, cars, out of our houses and out of our faces. We just don't want to see how it's done."
- Charles H Webb PH.D

Frontline meets the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of every month at 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM at the St. Vincent Ascension YMCA located at:
