MLA Douglas Horne - Coquitlam-Burke Mountain

Dear Father,

We are filled with joyful expectation for British Columbia's future.  We have witnessed amazing victories as our Canadian Atheletes held on to their vision, then pressing in to win the goal.

We thank you for Douglas Horne and ask you to bless the vision you have given him for his riding Coquitlam-Burke Mountain.


We ask for strength and endurance to finish well.  Thankyou for the wisdom and insight he brings to our Province.


May Your hand of protection be upon him and his family each day.

In Jesus Name, Amen
