According to a report by Punch Metro, the event, a non-governmental and non-political gathering, will be hosted by Reverend Merrie Turner ahead of the swearing-in ceremony of President-elect Donald J. Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance.
Pastor Nathaniel Bassey, affectionately known as “Pastor Nath,” will join an esteemed lineup of speakers and ministers, including Dr. Alveda King, Pastor Mario Bramnick, Revivalist Rebecca Macchi, and Dr. Dominiquae Bierman. The prayer breakfast will take place at the prestigious Waldorf Astoria Presidential Ballroom in Washington, D.C.
On his Instagram, Nathaniel Bassey confirmed his participation, saying, “Let’s raise a sound in America. And let the King of Glory come in. See you. 20th January, 2025.”
In the post, he shared further details about the event, explaining, “The Presidential Prayer Breakfast is a non-official and non-governmental event. It is a faith-based platform where intercessory prayers and worship are offered to God on behalf of the office of the president and the government of the nation. This event is held once every four years, preceding the inauguration ceremony, as a breakfast prayer meeting ahead of every new administration.”
Recall that in 2024, the Mayor of Albany, New York, declared October 6 as “Pastor Nathaniel Bassey Day” in the city.
