Father God, we want to thank You for the political leadership that we
have in British Columbia. Today we pray for MLA: Hon. Kevin Falcon
Deputy Premier and Minister of Finance. We are grateful for the
experience that he brings to this important portfolio. We pray that You
will give him a time of rest and refreshing with family and friends this
summer. During this refreshing we pray that You will also give him
supernatural and innovative ideas and vision that will lead to increases in
revenue in order to be able to provide for as many of our citizens as
possible. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen
