Awards Gala and Dinner
The black-tie awards gala and dinner will celebrate great models of leadership in the AAPI Christian-community - including pastors, churches, nonprofit and business leaders. Although leadership exists in our community, they are not known because they have seldom been given the platform for visibility. It is also an opportunity to recognize and thank funders and partners who have contributed to the advancement of AAPI community's participation, contribution and influence through faith-based and community partnerships. National AAPI Prayer Breakfast
The Prayer Breakfast is an opportunity to bring key AAPI Christian leaders as well as leaders from the greater community including elected officials and government agencies to come and lift up prayers for the community and the country. There will be prayers, presentations & entertainment/praise. Speed Networking Competition
