Join us for the Hamilton Prayer Breakfast

The Diocese has reserved two tables for Catholics wishing to attend this year's Hamilton Prayer Breakfast, a gathering that brings together Christians from many churches and cultures to pray for Hamilton, its people, and its leaders.

This annual event is organised by the Hamilton Pastors and Christian Leaders together with the NZ Christian Network, and is a wonderful opportunity to witness Christian unity through prayer.

Simply register and pay using the link below, and you'll automatically be seated at one of the Catholic tables.
