Lord Jesus, I bring Mr. Deron Bilous to you in prayer. Father I lift up Deron to you and thank you for his service to the province of Alberta and to the people of Edmonton-Beverly-Clareview. I pray that you would guide Deron and help him to use his skills and talents in economic development and innovation to make our province a better place. Bless Deron with knowledge, strength, courage and humility in his personal and professional life. Encourage Deron and his family in the coming year and keep them safe. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.
