First Responder Appreciation Day
September 11, 2026
CCBA/WMU and supporting area churches will provide meals throughout the day for First Responders.
We are excited to announce our upcoming "First Responder's Appreciation Day" on September 11, 2026. The theme of this day will be "Never Forget". This event is organized by CCBA WMU and hosted by First Baptist Church in Hopkinsville.
September 11 will be the 25th anniversary of the tragedy that took so many lives of those responding to the call for help. On this day we will gather to express our gratitude to local law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, dispatchers, corrections officers, and other first responders who answer the call every day.
To make this possible, we are asking for assistance from the churches in the Association.
- We will be accepting monetary donations
- seeking volunteers to serve in a variety of ways.
Your gift helps provide meals, appreciation gifts, event materials and opportunities to encourage these heroes and the families. Together, we can demonstrate Christ's love through tangible acts of kindness and appreciation.
The monetary donations will be accepted in person and online here.
• Under the memo choose "First Responder Appreciation."
Thank you for helping make First Responders Appreciation Day a meaningful expression of gratitude for those who serve our community.
