The prayer breakfast, hosted by Reverend Merrie Turner, will take place at the Waldorf Astoria Presidential Ballroom. Held every four years, it is a nonpartisan gathering aimed at offering spiritual support to incoming administrations.
This year’s program includes notable speakers such as Dr. Alveda King, niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and Pastor Mario Bramnick, alongside Bassey’s musical ministry.
