As the current chair for the Standing Committee on Social Policy as well as critic for the Environment and Climate Change and Energy, Peter Tabuns needs great knowledge and wisdom to help fulfill his role in the Legislative Assembly. We ask for credible influences in his life. We thank You for his service in our province. We pray for how You will give him courage and strength along with the needed wisdom. We pray for his protection. May his family be blessed and encouraged that their sacrifice in sharing him with the public will be most worthwhile. May he know health and strength for the task.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen
