Butterfield stage


You are cordially invited to attend the 14th Annual Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast in the Santa Clarita Valley on Thursday, May 3, from 7:00 a.m. – 8:30 a.m.

The event will take place at Kelly’s Banquet Hall, located at 26453 Friendly Valley Parkway
Santa Clarita, 91321.

The purpose of the breakfast is to show our support for you and our other local leaders and elected officials. The first National Prayer Breakfast was held by President Eisenhower in 1953 in Washington, D.C. The tradition has continued throughout the years across the country.

Communities united in prayer and faith flourish and are more successful than those without that common bond. The quiet army of people who diligently pray for the people in authority help to make the Santa Clarita Valley such a wonderful place to live.

At this breakfast, people will come together to pray for you and our other local leaders. We believe this to be an important task. We know that our leaders are confronted with numerous issues, from traffic impact to racial tension, and make long-lasting decisions that will impact our community for generations. Our leaders need wisdom and guidance in making the right decisions on a daily basis.

In addition to breakfast, entertainment will be provided by local musician.

We sincerely hope that you will be able to attend the Mayors Prayer Breakfast and trust that you will be blessed in doing so. We would be blessed to have you there.

Proud to announce we have been blessed to have Dr. Alveda King as our keynote speaker for the 2018 Mayors Prayer Breakfast. http://www.alvedaking.com/alveda-king
