SUMMARY:NELA Teacher Symposium
DESCRIPTION:We’re falling in love with teaching again\, and it shows!\nWe are professional development for the heart! We understand the importance of providing meaningful\, actionable support to educators! Led by the mission to support the St. Christopher Educational Fund\, a 501(c)(3)\, which provides high-impact professional development that prioritizes teacher recruitment\, retention\, and resilience. We foster mental health awareness by building emotional wellness and self-care strategies to make sure teachers have what they need emotionally to continue to execute their job responsibilities. We showcase vendors\, resources\, and opportunities for teachers to draw upon our community experts to bring real-life scenarios into their classrooms to make learning fun and informative. The feedback from our attendees has resulted in shifts of presentations each year to serve the educators who show up for the symposium. Many have shared that their decisions about ‘continuing in the classroom’ were directly impacted by their attendance at the NELA Teacher Symposium. \nThe 2026 NELA Symposium is happening Thursday\, July 16th from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm. The St. Christopher Educational Fund organization was created with the passion of bringing value back to the classroom and ESPECIALLY to the teacher. Our experience in education stretches farther than 3 decades. Our board members are well versed and seasoned in education\, business\, mass communication\, nonprofit organizations\, health care\, construction\, technology\, and marketing. Our growth speaks for itself. We are having to move to a larger venue to accommodate our audience! We’ve reached classrooms in 5 states by empowering 400+ educators and 6\,000+ students in only 3 years! Registration is now open! To register\, click the link provided under the website description.

DESCRIPTION:Join CAIN with special guest Leeland this fall for their Live and In Worship tour\, a night designed to create space for genuine encounter. 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. Make sure to wear orange! \nSCHEDULE\n5:30 – VIP\n6:00 – Reserved\n7:00 – Concert\nGET TICKETS HERE! \n  \nABOUT CAIN \nIt has been said that if you spend five minutes with the members of CAIN you’ll feel like you’ve spent the afternoon in the sunshine. 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.
