FORT MYERS, Fla. - May 8, 2023 - PRLog -- Two-time national champion, first-round NFL draft pick and Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow delivered a riveting keynote address touching on faith, humanity and hope at the 2023 Southwest Florida Community Prayer Breakfast.

Held May 4 at JetBlue Park in Fort Myers, approximately 2,000 attendees heard Tebow talk about how his experiences as an elite athlete gave him a platform to reach the masses, using his voice to become a spiritual influencer focused on humanitarian work.

Tebow's appearance in Fort Myers coincided with The National Day of Prayer, an annual observance on the first Thursday of May when individuals join in unified prayer for continued blessings on the nation. The Fort Myers community has been honoring the National Day of Prayer since the Community Prayer Breakfast's inception in 1988.

Tebow covered many topics during his 45-minute address: his upbringing, sports, faith and charity work. He advised audience members to stay focused on what really matters in life.

"I would lose perspective because I would get caught up in a game, caught up in winning, caught up in a championship, caught up in pursuing a goal, and it's so easy to forget what ultimately really matters," Tebow said. "Why is a day of prayer so important? Because it's a reminder to us of what really matters."

Local pastors, musicians and patriotic community leaders rounded out the 90-minute program, which featured prayer, inspirational music and periods for reflection. Guests exchanged prayer cards to continue spreading blessings throughout the year.
