Members of Congress involved in the National Prayer Breakfast seek to “reset” the event after breaking from the private religious group that had long organized it as part of a multi-day event in the nation’s capital. Reporting by GEDFIELDS.
That led to lawmakers deciding to take over organizing for the prayer breakfast itself.
Pryor said members of Congress, the president, vice president and other administration officials and their guests are invited to Thursday’s prayer breakfast, which will be held at the visitors’ center at the Capitol. He anticipated between 200 and 300 people would attend. More than 1,400 people are registered for the two-day event, with one-third of those from outside the United States.President Joe Biden, who has spoken at the breakfast the past two years, is set to do so again.
In recent years, questions about the International Foundation, its funding and attendees had led some to reconsider the involvement of Congress.
