This has been a wonderful week here in Ottawa. The big event was the Parliamentary Prayer Breakfast which saw over 800 guests pack into a hotel banquet room on Thursday morning. Dr. Ravi Zacharias had a powerful word for our nation and country-singer Paul Brandt used his music to give a strong testimony.
In the picture below you can see the honourable Stockwell Day as he was one of the Scripture readers (along with Michael Ignatieff, Jack Layton and Robert Bouchard) and also on the right M.P. David Anderson who chairs the event and who has done an amazing job the last few years in organizing the whole week of special events.
Our Nazarites also participated in the Canada Student Forum that surrounded the breakfast over a couple of days and had many interactions with M.P.s who live out their Christianity every day on the Hill. This week we also hosted pastoral leaders who came specifically to NHOP to take in the events.
By the way, you can read more about what goes on here from day to day on our regular NHOP Blog. |
