MPP: France Gélinas - Nickel Belt

Today we thank our member for serving, her sacrifice and dedication. We are grateful for her experience as she works hard for her constituents.  We pray that you would bless her and keep her. Lord I pray that she would experience Your love for her, know that all her work is not invain. Help her with her daily responsibilites, schedules and endless appointments and meetings.  If the Bible says that the “fear of The Lord"  is the beginning of wisdom. Reveal that truth and fill her with good counsel and wisdom.  Father we pray for our dear member for her team and staff, we pray for  health,  for strength to serve, bless and protect her family, husband, children and her grandchildren, keep them in Your loving care.  We pray and ask all these things in Jesus precious name.  Amen.
