Washington, D.C. –The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF) will continue in its rich tradition of hosting a spirit-filled morning with its 41st Annual Legislative Conference (ALC) Prayer Breakfast from 7:30 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. on September 24, 2011 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. Dr. Frederick Haynes III, Senior Pastor of the Friendship-West Baptist Church in Dallas will deliver what promises to be an inspirational and triumphant morning message.
For years the prayer breakfast has been the inspirational high note of ALC, attracting two, three and even four generations of families. The four-day Annual Legislative Conference is from September 21-24 and provides an outlet to highlight the mission of CBCF – developing leaders, informing policy and educating the public by providing more than 80-high level, thought-provoking forums to address the critical challenges facing the African-American Diaspora. Also offered during the four-day event are free health screenings, a job fair, interactive financial sessions, networking opportunities and cultural activities.
This year’s conference theme is iLead|iServe. ALC attendees will have many opportunities to share their thoughts and experiences on leading and serving – how and why they do it, the value of each, and the impact of each within their lives and their communities. The conference will use social media, a town hall meeting, brain trusts and personal interaction to further encourage discussions and follow-up conversations among attendees.
