2026 Prayer Breakfast

what's up for 2026?

 

Join us May 7th for the North Texas National Day of Prayer at Celebration Park in Allen, TX. We’ll lift our voices together, as we pray with local leaders representing the seven pillars of influence. All attendees who RSVP are invited to stay afterward for a complimentary lunch, generously provided by our ambassador partners, so we can further connect, fellowship, and strengthen our bonds as a community. Sign up at this link and we hope to see you there. https://tritechsoft.com/ndp/#home 

Our Guest speaker for 2026 is Greg Massey, Chairman and CEO of First United Bank & Trust, a thriving, purpose-driven organization with assets exceeding $16 billion, serving over 60 communities across Oklahoma and Texas.

Under his leadership, First United has achieved significant growth through innovative initiatives that prioritize culture, customer satisfaction, and employee engagement.

Guided by its purpose, “To inspire and empower others to Spend Life Wisely,” the organization exemplifies Greg’s dedication to purposeful leadership and conscious capitalism.

Greg’s influence extends beyond the bank through his service on the boards of the Southwestern Graduate School of Banking Foundation, the Oklahoma Hall of Fame, and the Oklahoma State University Foundation. He also contributes to the Oklahoma State Chamber Council of Advisors, the Oklahoma Business Roundtable, and the Young Presidents’ Organization (Gold and Maverick Chapters)

Deeply engaged in his community, Greg is also active in Victory Life Church. A graduate of Oklahoma State University with a degree in Finance, Greg went on to complete the Southwestern Graduate School of Banking and advanced leadership training at the Stagen Leadership Academy. 

He and his wife, Kay, are the proud parents of three children who continually inspire his commitment to family, faith, and building a better future for others.
