The 43rd Annual Mayor’s Leadership Prayer Breakfast is back at the Peoria Civic Center on Thursday, September 21, 2017 with guest speaker Jason Brown, former St. Louis Rams football player. Breakfast begins at 6:30 am in the ballroom.

Former St. Louis Rams player Jason Brown stepped out in faith in 2012 and left the NFL to become a farmer. Jason retired from football and moved back to North Carolina where he purchased a 1,000-acre farm. Since he began farming, his First Fruits Farm has yielded more than 200,000 pounds of produce which has been given to food pantries and churches throughout North Carolina. Thousands of people have volunteered in gleaning and harvest events at his farm.

In addition to our guest speaker, there will be great music, food, and fellowship. Please come and bring your friends and coworkers. The cost is $35 a person or tables of 10. For more information, visit www.peoriamayorprayerevent.com, call 685-1725, or email the committee at [email protected].

FYI: Please note that seating to this event is limited and offered on a first come first serve basis.
