Episode 90: Mike Dragich Project Savior Outdoors
It's a miracle that Mike Dragich is even here. Shot at point blank range in a gang related incident at 19 years old, he should have bled out from his injury had a close friend not tracked him nearly a mile into a backyard where he lay going in and out of consciousness. A major wake up call that he needed to change his ways, the Ohio native joined the Marines and God began to soften the heart of the hard nosed fighter.
Shortly after leaving the hospital, Mike rededicated his life to Christ and asked to be used for His purposes. Running the martial arts program while in the Marines, four years in the military was all that God had planned for Dragich as he and his wife started their family.
Now a successful businessman, MMA fighter, and nuisance alligator trapper in Florida, Mike launched Project Savior Outdoors in January of 2023 in an effort to fight Veteran suicide and PTSD. Having lost 15 men that he served with to suicide since 2015, Dragich and his team are coming alongside those struggling, empowering them through the outdoors and sharing the love of Christ.
We are excited to be a part of PSO and had the pleasure of spending a few days with Mike and his crew at Mission 24 last month in Southern Wisconsin. They will be launching their own podcast soon to continue spreading the message and impact even more lives in the years ahead.
God has Mike and Project Savior Outdoors on the fast track to do great things in the Veteran space and share his love along the way. To learn more, you can follow them here:
