Creator: I pray today for Claire Trevena and ask for extra support for her in her work. Help her to see the challenges of each day as tasks You have purposefully set before her. Help her to find inner resources and ideas beyond what she thought she possessed. And at the end of every day, give her rest, peace and a sense of accomplishment. This is asked in the name of the one who loves us best. Amen.Claire Trevena was first elected in May 2005 and was re-elected on May 12, 2009.
