The Gold Coast Mayoral Prayer Breakfast has been held since 1991 and has become one of the highlights of the Gold Coast calendar of events. Initiated by Grant Vickers & Adrian Heaton it is part of the International Prayer Breakfast movement which was established in the 1950’s by U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower and which has since spread worldwide.
The Gold Coast breakfast focuses on inspirational Christian outreach prayer for and with the Business & Professional Community and Civic & Political leaders.
We encourage you to get a group together each year and take part in this great opportunity to gather together to seek divine guidance for our leadership and to reaffirm our faith and dependence on God.
“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14
