SUMMARY:First Responders Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our annual First Responders Luncheon!\nOur First Responders dedicate themselves to protecting and serving our community every day. This fall\, the Chamber is proud to recognize these local heroes at our First Responders Luncheon\, and we’re inviting our members to help make this special event possible. \nThere are three meaningful ways you can get involved: \nBecome a Sponsor\nHelp us honor those who serve our community through an event sponsorship. Sponsorship opportunities are available at $250 and $750\, offering your business visibility while demonstrating your support for our local police officers\, firefighters\, EMS personnel\, dispatchers\, and other first responders. Sponsorship can be reserved on our events page or by simply contacting the chamber! \nWrite a Letter of Appreciation\nA heartfelt note can make a lasting impact. We’re collecting thank-you notes (notecard sized and handwritten) from Chamber members to include in each first responder’s luncheon gift box. Whether it’s a few sentences or a full page\, your words of encouragement and gratitude will help remind our first responders how much they’re appreciated. Our goal is to have more than one personal note per lunch so feel free to contribute up to the full 550 list! Note: We will need these notes no later than September 8th at the Chamber Office for pre-packaging. \nVolunteer to Assemble Gift Boxes\nWe’re looking for a limited number of volunteers to help assemble the appreciation packets and boxed lunches before the event. It’s a great opportunity to serve alongside fellow Chamber members and play a hands-on role in recognizing our community’s heroes. We ask that each volunteer group limit their numbers to less 5 per organization to give as many organizations the opportunity to participate as possible.  Volunteer shifts are from 8:30am-10:30am on September 11th at Ouachita Parish Schools Office. Sign up online at our events page or call the Chamber for details! \n To learn more about the event\, visit our website linked under the website description.

Come as you are\, be refreshed\, and leave filled in the presence of God. Through songs that speak life and moments of intentional worship\, this evening invites you into something both uplifting and deeply restoring.

Their joy spills over onto each person they meet\, and their bright smiles are as contagious as their stunning harmonies. Pouring their joy into their music\, CAIN has discovered what it’s like to live their calling while doing their favorite thing – singing about Jesus. \nRaised in Hartselle\, Alabama as pastor’s kids\, CAIN – Taylor Cain Matz\, Madison Cain Johnson\, and Logan Cain – got their first break opening for Dave Barnes and Andrew Ripp at a show in 2012. Now more than a decade later\, they’ve headlined multiple tours and shared the stage with Chris Tomlin\, TobyMac\, Phil Wickham and more. \nABOUT LEELAND \nLEELAND is a Texas-based band made of lead singer\, songwriter\, and multi-instrumentalist Leeland Mooring alongside guitarist and co-writer Casey Moore. They came to the forefront of the worship music sphere in 2004 and debuted their first project in 2006. LEELAND have become one of the most significant and standout voices in a new generation of worship music. Their lives\, ministry\, and music are a true extension of their passion to simply worship God personally and in community. \n“Although our genesis as a band was in the Contemporary Christian Music artist stream\, we’ve always been local church pastor’s kids\,” Mooring explains. He spent his childhood going from town to town with his parents who ministered music in tandem with being traveling evangelists. “Half of the songs on our first studio album came out of intimate youth group worship services in our house or wherever we could meet\,” he adds. \nMooring co-wrote one of the Church’s most-sung standards\, ‘Lion and the Lamb’. The song cemented his personal status as a young veteran in the sphere of modern worship music. Further affirming that LEELAND as a collective are drawn into crafting songs that court congregations across the globe to worship God through the act of singing – and singing together.

From their earliest days gathering on beaches and in living rooms to now leading worship across the world\, the band has held tightly to one mission: to joyfully share the good news of Jesus through authentic\, Spirit-filled worship. \nSince the release of their debut Organic Family Hymnal\, Rend Collective has grown from a small worshipping community into a global voice\, amassing over 1 billion career streams\, and multiple gold and platinum selling singles\, including fan favorites like “My Lighthouse\,” “Counting Every Blessing\,” and “Build Your Kingdom Here.” Their catalog also includes the international worship anthem “Hallelujah Anyway\,” which has resonated deeply with churches around the world. \nThe group’s breakout single “Build Your Kingdom Here” became an early global anthem\, and their momentum carried into a historic run of chart-topping albums. The Art of Celebration debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Christian Albums Chart\, followed by several additional No. 1 records including As Family We Go\, Good News\, and Campfire. Known for their energetic\, folk-infused worship\, Rend Collective has toured with major artists such as Chris Tomlin\, MercyMe\, Hillsong UNITED\, Kari Jobe\, and Lecrae\, all while preserving a sound rooted in joy\, community\, and honest storytelling. \nAcross albums like As Family We Go (2015)\, Campfire II (2016)\, Good News (2017)\, Choose to Worship (2020)\, Whosoever (2022)\, and FOLK! (2024)\, Rend Collective continues to evolve musically while staying true to the heart of their ministry: hope\, simplicity\, and the wide-open welcome of Jesus. \nToday\, the band is made up of Chris Llewellyn\, Stephen Mitchell\, Daniel Jones\, and Jonathan Chu—friends and worshippers who still believe that celebration is a holy act and that the joy of the Lord is worth shouting from the rooftops. \nBENJAMIN WILLIAM HASTINGS\nBenjamin William Hastings is a Northern Irish singer-songwriter whose journey began in Belfast and flourished in Sydney\, Australia\, where he became connected with Hillsong UNITED. As a key collaborator\, Hastings co-wrote impactful songs\, including the globally acclaimed\, Platinum-certified “So Will I (100 Billion X)\,” a top 5 hit on Christian Radio. Benjamin has written songs for artists like Brandon Lake\, Cory Asbury\, and Rend Collective\, and has garnered over 1.3 billion streams globally. \nNow based in Nashville\, TN\, Benjamin is a top performing artist on AIR1 with hits like “Feels Like A Blessing\,” “That’s the Thing About Praise\,” and “Know You Will.” His 2023 single “That’s the Thing About Praise” reached #11 on Christian Airplay. Alongside his wife\, Jessa Hastings\, author of the Magnolia Parks series\, he balances creativity and family life with their two children. \nBenjamin’s latest album\, ‘Sold Out\, Sincerely’ is a divine record that reflects his faith and life journey\, offering songs that inspire deeper connection with God.
