Inside the government...

The National Prayer Breakfast was initiated in 1953 by a Methodist minister, Abraham Vereide, who had been leading Congressional prayer groups for a decade. The annual breakfast now attracts close to 4,000 participants and is hosted by members of Congress. But the real force behind the event remains Mr. Vereideโ€™s Fellowship Foundation, also known as โ€œThe Family,โ€ whose fundamental mission is to create a ruling consortium of Christ-centered political and community leaders.
