YMCA Prayer Breakfast
Ever since 1968, the Metropolitan YMCAs of Mississippi has hosted an annual prayer breakfast. This event was first held to honor the past board members of the Metropolitan YMCA branches but has since evolved to honor all community volunteers for their dedication to and support of the YMCA. This is one of the largest and longest-running community events in the greater Jackson area. The Metropolitan YMCA now uses this long-running event to reflect on previous blessings and look forward to the year ahead.
This year’s prayer breakfast was held on November 21, 2024, and featured keynote speaker Pastor Bobby McGuffie with a performance by the Metropolitan YMCAs of Mississippi Horizon Singer singing Heal the World. The singers are children from the Clinton Family YMCA's afterschool program.
