Heavenly Father, we ask that MLA: Kathy Corrigan would experience Your blessing in her life today.  Thank You for a lifetime of service to others through her many volunteer activities and community service.  We pray that You would help her as she serves her constituents in Burnaby-Deer Lake as MLA and the people of British Columbia as critic for Public Safety and Corrections.  Grant her strength, wisdom, courage and discernment as she gives herself to service and leadership.  We ask this in Jesus' Name, Amen.
