Grant Crack - MPP for Prescott-Russell (February 10,2015)



Father, thank you for the strength you have given MPP Grant Crack as he returns to parliament.  We pray for his position in the government, and especially we pray for wisdom and encouragement in the decision making process as Assistant to the Education Minister.  We pray for gentleness as he meets with members of the riding he represents, and cause him to know the peace that you give.  Encourage his family as they too give themselves to the province at this time.  Bless his family In Jesus Name.  Amen
