Bismarck, N.D. – Tickets are now available for the 2026 Bismarck Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast, set for May 20 at the Bismarck Radisson Hotel. Single tickets are $25, with half tables priced at $250 and full tables at $500. Proceeds from the event benefit Crisis Care Chaplaincy (CCC).
Bismarck Mayor Mike Schmitz said the organization provides “hope, compassion and someone to support” people in times of need, offering comfort and guidance when life feels overwhelming.
This year’s speaker is Kathleen Boyle Wrigley, a school counselor, adjunct professor, author, and longtime columnist for On the Minds of Moms. Wrigley has over 25 years of experience in counseling, education, and public service and is the author of the children’s book Officer Danny and the Kindness Patrol. She has survived two brain aneurysm surgeries and has dedicated her career to advocating for victims’ rights, mental wellness, and faith-based values.
CCC Chaplain Greg Carr said Wrigley “embodies the very spirit of resilience, faith and compassion that our community needs to hear” and that her message aligns with the mission of the Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast.
