Hosted alongside the National Prayer Breakfast, the summit is an opportunity to explore how Christian leadership can shape Canada for the good of all.
Participants will get a behind-the-scenes look at Canada’s Capital, as they tour Parliament Hill, hear from Christian leaders who are making a real difference, and engage with Members of Parliament and Senators.
Whether you’re curious, convinced, or skeptical about Canada’s political system, this is a space to wrestle with big questions, and engage in honest conversations about faith, leadership, and the future of our nation. The Young Christian Leaders Summit is about transforming curiosity into courageous action.
