MLA Guy Gentner - Delta North

Today we are praying for Guy Gentner, MLA for Delta North.

Heavenly Father, we gladly remember Guy Gentner in prayer today.  We ask that you would bless him indeed and that you would watch over him and strengthen him.  We ask that you would enable him to serve his constituents and our province with distinction and great grace.  Use him to speak for those who are unable to be heard by others, help him to be a defender of the weak and disenfranchised and finally, help him to walk humbly before both men and God.

Amen
