Father, I thank You that You have placed MPP Gila Martow in government. I ask that You would give Gila the wisdom and courage to speak on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves. I pray that Gila will not grow weary of doing what is right. Give her strength as she serves, and I ask Your blessing on her and her family. In Jesus’ name, amen.

After graduating from the University of Waterloo as an optometrist, Gila moved to Thornhill in 1989, where she and her husband, Jeff, co-ran an eye clinic attached to Markham Stouffville Hospital until she took office last February.
As a mother of four, Gila is dedicated to making York Region the best place to live, work and play for our future generations. To that effect, Gila has served as the Chair of the Parents Association of Tanenbaum CHAT York Region Campus.
