Michael Kurcina

Jordan served 10 years in the USMC as Infantryman and Scout Sniper. He deployed to Ramadi & Karmah, Iraq in 2007 with 2nd Battalion 5th Marines and Sangin, Afg. in 2010 with 3rd Battalion 5th Marines. He witnessed some of the worst fighting a single battalion had seen since Vietnam. After getting out in 2011, he started working as a private contractor, but an undiagnosed brain injury eventually became to much to bare.

In 2017 after two suicide attempts, he became homeless on the streets, unemployed, facing divorced and a felony DUI.

He finally got the right help for his brain injury and began turning his life around dedicating himself to a life of service to others, veterans, first responders, and young adults.

It is His calling to speak, teach, and serve others full time. Recently he was accepted to Calvary Bible Institute in Joshua Springs, CA.
