Why this gathering matters

Public life can feel divided. Prayer gives Australians a better place to begin.

Many people want to support our leaders and pray for the nation, but need a clear, welcoming way to take part. The Australian National Prayer Breakfast creates that moment: a trusted, bipartisan, interdenominational gathering where communities pause together for wisdom, unity, and the common good.

Our 2025 Speaker

John Dickson

The theme for 2025 was "Rejoicing in Hope," finding expression in The First Hymn, the oldest known Christian hymn with musical notation. Dr John Dickson and the Undeceptions team helped bring this extraordinary witness to life with Chris Tomlin and Ben Fielding.

Supporting our Leaders

A trusted national gathering for prayer, service, and the common good.

Leaders from across the political spectrum, of different faiths or none, come together over breakfast as we pray for God's blessing on all who serve our great country. The Prayer Breakfast is not tied to any denomination. It springs from Jesus' call to love God and to love our neighbour without exception.

This gathering reminds us that public life is a sacred trust, and love must guide how we serve, lead, and live together. Prayer becomes a bridge between private belief and public action, uniting Australians across all backgrounds.

  • Reaching out across political and personal differences
  • Serving our nation for the common good since 1986
  • Hosted by the Parliamentary Christian Fellowship

Attendees comments

"A splendid time of togetherness."

What a privilege and joy to be part of the National Prayer Breakfast this morning. Thank you for the enormous effort bringing the morning to fulfilment, a splendid time of togetherness, uniting God's people in prayer for our nation, parliament, and politicians.

John's message, the First Hymn, and the music delightfully sung by the St Edmund's College Gospel Choir, were all eagerly received.
