Prayer Breakfast 2019

The spirit-filled Arcata Interfaith Gospel Choir will hold a Prayer Breakfast at the Arcata Community Center (321 Dr. MLK Jr. Parkway) on Sunday, May 19. A continental breakfast is served at 9:30 a.m. and the music begins at 10 a.m.

The Sweet Inspiration Band, an Aretha Franklin tribute group featuring vibrant local singers Lorenza Simmons-Phillips, Paula Jones, Jenni Simpson and Yemaya Kimmel, will open the show.

Breakfast will include a tasty spread of fresh bagels, lox, cream cheese, veggies, hummus, butter and jam as well as pastries, fresh fruit, coffee, tea and orange juice.

Tickets are $15 in advance and $18 at the door. Free admission for children 5 and under.

Formed in 1992, the Arcata Interfaith Gospel Choir inspires faith, hope, love and joy through black gospel music. The choir serves the Humboldt County region of Northern California by singing at community events, memorials, churches, and for inmates at the county jail.

An extensive silent auction and raffle of quality items from local businesses will help to support the work of the AIGC.
