A Thermopylae Breakfast




In the Battle of Thermopylae of 480 B.C. an alliance of Greek city-states fought the invading Persian army at the pass of Thermopylae. Vastly outnumbered, the Greeks delayed the enemy in one of the most famous last stands of history. A small force led by King Leonidas of Sparta blocked the only road through which the massive army of Xerxes I could pass. The Persians succeeded in defeating the Greeks but sustained heavy losses, incredibly disproportionate to those of the Greeks

I wonder what they had for breakfast.

After all, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And our Mens' Prayer breakfasts not only equip us physically, but also spiritually, so we, like the legendary Greek 300, can stand.

Don't neglect prayer breakfast this Saturday morning at 8 am, brethren.
