Our Father, today we pause to think
about our MPP Sylvia Jones that serves her province in
Dufferin-Caledon. Sylvia has grown up on her family's
farm in her riding. She is working hard representing the
communities in her area. Father we pray for Sylvia as she
serves to be a strong voice for families, she tirelessly strives to be
available and assist with needs and helping to build a better community. Lord we pray you would renew her
strength, give her guidance and meet all her needs. We pray for her staff, we ask for
blessings and protection for her family. Lord, we ask
you to bless your daughter today, surround her with wise council,
give her knowledge and wisdom in all her decisions.
In Jesus Precious Name, we pray.
