A SPECIAL STORY ABOUT INVESTING IN THE NEXT GENERATION!

Last year, Joseph and Angel Perry, Co-Founders and Co-Presidents of the CoVA Christian Chamber of Commerce, the founding chapter of the Virginia Christian Chamber of Commerce, had the privilege of helping bring Liberty University students to the Hampton Roads Leadership Prayer Breakfast.

Through the generosity of friends and fellow Chamber members who helped welcome and host these students, they experienced firsthand the power of gathering with business, ministry, and community leaders in prayer.

And this year, we’re especially excited that Liberty University’s Chancellor, Jonathan Falwell, will be delivering the keynote address!

For more than five decades, the Hampton Roads Leadership Prayer Breakfast has brought leaders together around faith, prayer, and unity. We’re grateful for the many individuals and organizations who make this gathering possible and honored that our Chamber could play a meaningful role in introducing the next generation to this important tradition.

Investing in the next generation isn’t just about preparing them for tomorrow. It’s about giving them a seat at the table TODAY!

We hope you’ll join us—and consider inviting a student or emerging leader to experience it with you!

It takes a village or community to foster the next Generation and bring them into the fold to see transformation in the Kingdom right where we are here in Virginia! We fell in Love with the servant hearts of these students from Liberty Voiles and her friends from Liberty School of Business and we asked our friends from Adele Diamond and Drew & Pauli Miller if they could host our Liberty Students and get them to the prayer breakfast! One year later Liberty University ‘s chancellor Falwell is the keybote this year for Hampton Roads Leadership Prayer Breakfast ! God has plan in Education and he loved Unity! If you want to be a part of the move of God here in Virginia join us CoVA Christian Chamber - https://join.virginiachristianchamber.com/

It started with one table. 🙏

Last year, Joseph and Roberta Angel Perry of the Coastal Virginia Christian Chamber filled a table at the Prayer Breakfast with Liberty University students. Now, the very next year, Liberty Chancellor Jonathan Falwell is our keynote speaker.

No coincidence. Investing in the next generation reaches far beyond Hampton Roads.

Bring a student or young leader with you.

10/10 WINS! 🙌 THREE CHAMBERS. ONE KINGDOM. ONE PURPOSE!

What an incredible day on the Potomac River in Washington, D.C.!

On Saturday, October 10th, something historic happened! Three Christian Chambers of Commerce came together in the first-ever three-Chamber coalition gathering under the umbrella of the U.S. Christian Chamber of Commerce!

We want to give special honor and recognition to Wynne Briscoe and the DMV Christian Chamber of Commerce for their leadership, vision, and dedication in bringing this incredible gathering together!

Before the event, I shared a word with Wynne: “10/10 WINS!”

And what a WIN it was!

101 people registered, and only THREE name tags were left on the registration table!

Christian business owners, entrepreneurs, and Kingdom leaders came together for an unforgettable afternoon of fellowship, encouragement, divine connections, and collaboration.

Representing the DMV, Maryland, and Virginia Christian Chambers, we witnessed something much greater than networking.

We witnessed what happens when God’s people come together with one heart and one Kingdom purpose!

Ecclesiastes 4:12 reminds us that “a threefold cord is not quickly broken.”

And that’s what made this gathering so powerful!

We’re seeing Christian business communities cross geographical boundaries, strengthen relationships, and unite to advance God’s Kingdom in the marketplace.

Congratulations to Wynne and the entire DMV Christian Chamber team! Thank you for bringing people together and helping build something that will have an impact far beyond this one afternoon.

Three Chambers. One Umbrella. One Kingdom!

And the greatest WIN wasn’t just how many people showed up. It was the relationships God was building and the doors He was opening!

10/10 WINS! Because when we come together, the KINGDOM WINS! 🙌❤️

And this is only the beginning!
