The theme of the breakfast was “Rise and Rebuild with Faith and Steadfast Grace” from Nehemiah 2:17-18. National Assembly Speaker, Moses Wetang’ula said, “The Annual Prayer Breakfast is an inter-denominational prayer gathering organized by Members of Parliament, bringing together leaders from across the country and beyond to reflect, pray, and recommit to the values of service and nationhood.”
For the first time since the inception of the event in 2003, leaders from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints were invited to attend the breakfast. Representing the Church was Africa Central Area President Elder Thierry K. Mutombo, Area Seventy assigned to Kenya, Elder George Munene, and Nairobi West Stake President Peter Ondigo.
Elder George Munene said that just as a family that prays together stays together, “A country that prays together grows stronger together. The theme was rise and rebuild. It was liberating seeing the unity that is fostered through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer."
