Dear Jesus, we thank you for MPP Donna Skelly and those helping in her office. Bless MPP Skelly and her family with love, peace, and joy. May MPP Skelly find refreshing in you, Lord. Your word says “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink”. (John 7:37) We pray you would provide plenty of ideas and solutions to job creation and trade, that would bless the people of Flamborough-Glanbrook. In Jesus name, Amen!
