8 October 2021

Registrations are now open for the 32nd Australian National Prayer Breakfast being broadcast:

Monday 8 November 2021
7.30am to 8.30am AEDT & AWST

The event will be live streamed from Parliament House, Canberra with guests from around the Nation.

Senator the Hon. Amanda Stoker and Mr Luke Gosling OAM, MP are once again hosting this event with messages from national dignitaries, Members of Parliament, Senators and other civic leaders, as well as a guest speaker who will be sharing how their personal faith makes a difference as they serve our nation.

During the breakfast we will uphold in prayer all our leaders in their demanding roles of service for the common good of our nation and all her diverse communities. One of the highlight's of the breakfast last year was the Lord's Prayer being prayed by Christian school students from around the Nation.

We will once again have a significant involvement from Christian schools during this year's event.

We will be blessed with messages from national dignitaries, Members of Parliament, Senators and other civic leaders, including the Governor-General, Prime Minster and Oppositions Leader. They will be sharing how their personal faith makes a difference as they serve our nation.

The guest speaker this year is Dr Jenny George, the CEO of Converge International, one of Australia’s largest mental health providers to workplaces. It provides EAP, training and consulting to over 2 million workers nationwide. Converge is a for-profit enterprise with a for-purpose heart, and now also funds R&D into the relationship between Faith and Work. Jenny has a Business PhD from Stanford, and taught & researched in Data Analytics. She is a Distinguished Academic Fellow of the Melbourne Business School (University of Melbourne).

You can register for the event here.

Registrations are free, although there is a suggested donation to help offset costs.

Subject to your local COVID guidelines, we are encouraging all schools to host your own local National Prayer Breakfast event at your school or in your local community. It is an ideal opportunity to invite your local Federal MPs and Senators and other civic and religious leaders.
