9th Annual Emerald Coast Gala

9th Annual Emerald Coast Gala

We are honored to welcome Greg Munck as our keynote speaker for the 9th Annual SOF Missions Gala on 13 September in Destin/FWB, FL!

A combat-promoted Marine who served in the Gulf War, Greg went from the battlefield to the boardroom and now serves as the lead pastor and co-founder of Crossline Community Church.  His journey from warfighter to warrior for Christ has inspired thousands, and through The Guide Soldier Foundation, he continues to serve active and veteran military around the globe.

Greg’s story is one of resilience, faith, and purpose—a perfect embodiment of our gala theme: “CODE RED: This Isn’t a Charity.  This Is a Call to Action.”

You won’t want to miss what he has to share. 


About the Organization

SOF Missions is a Non-profit organization that specializes in providing whole health care to Veterans and active-duty service members.  SOF Missions was established in 2011 as a non-profit 501c3 organization by Dr. Damon and Dayna Friedman.  Damon, a retired Lt Colonel, within the Special Operations community, served 20 years.  He knows firsthand the challenges warriors face, having served on four combat tours to Iraq and Afghanistan.  Our team believes we are called to be Freedom Fighters.  Our mission is to combat the Veteran suicide crisis.  

"Here I am, send me!" Isaiah 6:8


About the Event

Proceeds from the gala will go directly to aiding active-duty personnel, Veterans, and first responders nationwide who face mental and physical injuries. These funds enable Be Resilient Clinics and Be Resilient Retreats to offer free, comprehensive care plans, ensuring our Nation’s warriors receive the support they need, regardless of their financial situation.  At our Be Resilient Clinics in Tampa, FL, we bring together providers from psychological, social, spiritual, and physical domains to assess, treat, and overcome challenges of military service and combat such as PTSD, chronic/acute pain, sleep issues, isolation, stress, and moral injury.   The Be Resilient Retreat is a powerful, two-day experience designed to equip participants with practical tools to build physical, emotional, and mental resilience. Hosted at the renowned EXOS facility in Gulf Breeze, Florida—this clinic offers a unique, integrative approach to wellness and recovery.
