Work on the 2026 Toronto Prayer Breakfast began in the Spring of 2025. We started doing the usual things: booking the venue, speaker and other elements of the program, reaching out to sponsors, etc. As we were finally about to embark on the marketing in early January, our plans suddenly unravelled.
The Organizing Committee met in mid-January to get the event back on track with a new programming plan. As we prayed in that meeting, the Committee suddenly began to understand that the Lord was prompting us to set that second plan aside as well, for something different.
It’s not always easy to embrace change, particularly in an event that has had a familiar look-and-feel for three decades. However, the call we feel from the Lord is unmistakable, and we have chosen to obey the Lord rather than hold to tradition and human expectations.
What to Expect at the 2026 Toronto Prayer Breakfast
The 2026 Breakfast will still feature many of the same key elements:




However, in a break with tradition, there will be no single Keynote Speaker.
Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done
Instead, several key Toronto ministry leaders will speak to current challenges that our city, country and world are facing right now, and lead the assembled Christian leadership of the city in united prayer for God's intervention in our land, and for His Church to find its rightful place in providing Spirit-led solutions for our homes, families, businesses and communities.
It’s certainly going to be different. There’s no big-name speaker draw to pull in congregational, ministry and business table sales, just a humble call to prayer across Canada’s largest city. Given the unexpected and purposeful way the Lord has moved so far, we expect that His Spirit will go out gathering the leaders of His Church together on March 3, and take control of the proceedings in a way only He can.
And if that happens, this year’s Breakfast will be well worth attending.
The Toronto Prayer Breakfast is produced by an all-volunteer team of local Christians from various congregations, para-church ministries and businesses, and the event is run on a cost-recovery basis. Any surplus funds are forwarded to the next Breakfast event.
