Chairman's Congressional Prayer Breakfast kicks off second day of Presidency 4 Sunday, October 21th 2007 @ 10:36am Orlando—Republican Party of Florida Chairman Jim Greer hosted a prayer breakfast this morning featuring Florida’s Congressional Delegation as part of the RPOF’s Presidency 4 weekend. With Governor Crist, U.S. Senator Mel Martinez, Lieutenant Governor Jeff Kottkamp, Senator Mike Fasano, and many members of Florida’s Congressional Delegation in attendance, the Prayer Breakfast offered the over 2,500 grassroots activists who were present an opportunity to come together for a morning of faith and affirmation.
“This morning we heard from a variety of faith leaders, who encouraged the Republican Party of Florida—and all Floridians—to maintain a positive vision for our future,” noted Chairman Greer. “Their remarks were uplifting and a great way to kick off the second day of Presidency 4.”
Speakers at the Prayer Breakfast included Rabbi Schneur Z. Oirechman, who established a Chabad Lubavitch center in the Florida Panhandle, with headquarters in Tallahassee, to conduct Jewish programs and activities in Tallahassee and the Panhandle. The Chabad Center of Tallahassee is one of 127 in the State of Florida, and of several thousand worldwide. Pastor Ken Babington, Pastor of First Baptist Church in Cocoa Beach, also addressed the Prayer Breakfast. Pastor Babington helped to formulate the Florida Parent Educators Association. The keynote address was provided by Mark Merrill, the founder and president of Family First, a widely-respected national non-profit organization dedicated to strengthening the family.
Presidency 4 offers a full schedule of events featuring many of Florida’s elected Republican officials. It culminates in a nationally-televised, prime-time debate presented by FOX News Channel, FoxNews.com, and FOX News Radio.
