2026 Christian Leadership Prayer Breakfast

You are invited to join us Thursday, May 7th for the 33rd Annual Christian Leadership Prayer Breakfast.

This treasured gathering on the National Day of Prayer brings together several hundred Christian leaders who serve in all sectors from across Metro Richmond. Invite a friend or two and experience a powerful time of fellowship and prayer that transforms Richmond!

This year’s event will be held at Mt. Gilead Full Gospel International Ministries. Our program will include a time of worship, impactful prayer segments led by Metro Richmond leaders around the needs in our community, and a time for reflection. Our program, including worship and prayer leaders, will be announced soon.

Doors open at 6:30 a.m. and the event runs from 7-9 a.m. A full, hot breakfast and beverages are generously being provided by our host church. Please purchase your ticket on Eventbrite for $20 by noon on April 30th. There will be no registration at the door.

The Christian Leadership Prayer Breakfast is hosted by the Board & Advisory Board of For Richmond, a nonprofit that unites the Church for the flourishing and transformation of Metro Richmond.
