Bishop asked to pray at Prayer Breakfast

In another example of why you should always know how to pray off book, even as Episcopalians, President Obama closed the annual Prayer Breakfast today by inviting retired bishop of New Hampshire, Gene Robinson, to pray for the group.

+Gene chronicled the unplanned moment on Twitter, calling it as privilege.


The National Prayer Breakfasts are ecumenical events, gathering faith leaders across Christian denominations, and have been occurring since 1953.

Talking Points Memo has the story here.
