The 66th Minnesota Prayer Breakfast:
Coming together around Jesus to pray for our state in tough times.
Our Moment
What a year we've had in Minnesota — what a six-year period.
The murder of George Floyd. The murder of the Speaker. Annunciation School. ICE. Trouble on the farm and in small towns. Trouble in suburbs. Trouble in the cities. And a hundred other troubles that didn't make the news.
“Let’s not be afraid or discouraged, but press on in our faith and gather to pray for Minnesota — and take action on what we hear God tell us.”
God cares about people.
God cares about place.
God cares about healing and justice.
The Minnesota Prayer Breakfast
exists to serve that mission.
An aspiration that starts with an invitation.
The Scriptures say Jesus traveled around and lamented that people were “harassed and helpless” — sounds like too many of our neighbors — then he said, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
That’s why we’re gathering: to ask for Minnesota workers in many areas of need.
And — who knows? — we may be the workers we’re praying for.
Calling all workers
From all faith traditions
People first
Compassion for every neighbor — across every neighborhood, county, and community.
Many traditions
Rooted in faith — open to all who seek healing and justice through prayer.
Real community
Not politics, not optics — true neighbors gathering to love and serve Minnesota.
Help Minnesotans move from feeling harassed and helpless to being part of a plentiful harvest of love in our day.

WORDS THAT GUIDE US
“When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.”
Jesus of Nazareth — Matthew 9
