Praying in Parliament

CARE's Director of Communications and en contributor, James Mildred, snaps PM Rishi Sunak

The Prime Minister was among a bumper crop of MPs attending this year’s Parliamentary Breakfast on 27 June, alongside representatives from the Christian community. 

More than 700 parliamentarians - including a record 180-plus MPs - and Christian leaders met together at Westminster Hall for the annual recognition of Christianity’s contribution to UK life.

Among many evangelical Christians who attended were Gavin Calver of Evangelical Alliance UK and a team from CARE. CARE’s head of church engagement in England, Peter Killingley, was in conversation with Rishi Sunak after the breakfast.
