29th Annual Greater Hartford Multifaith Prayer Breakfast

Our topic this year is Building Community - Ways to bring people together? Join us! Since 1997 the Greater Hartford Multi-Faith Prayer Breakfast has reached across religious boundaries to find and celebrate those beliefs we share, to pray for the Greater Hartford community and to acknowledge together that our diverse communities need the prayerful support of all of our religious traditions if we are to realize a healthy urban center. You can expect uplifting, spiritual music, and greetings from city and state leaders. Christians, Jews, Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, Buddhists, Baha’is and others have been involved in the planning of the event. A delicious Middle Eastern style breakfast will be served. Our theme for 2026 is Building Community - Ways to bring people together? Information will also be available from a variety of area groups that focus on community. OOur panel discussion will feature Dr. Sherry L. Turner, President of Hartford International University for Religion and Peace (HIU); Rick Hathaway, Executive Director of the Connecticut Council for Interreligious Understanding (CCIU); and Nina Vazquez, an Organizer with the Greater Hartford Interfaith Action Alliance (GHIAA). The event is free. A $10 donation is suggested, but donations of any size are welcome so we can continue to support this longstanding event.
