Father, God. Our Father, we thank You for the life of MPP Sol Mamakwa. We are so grateful for this man who is one of only 3 MPP’s of indigenous heritage and only the second person of full first nations descent elected to assembly. Thank You for positioning him to break through barriers and bring great and significant change in this land. Protect him from misunderstanding and attacks of any kind. Keep him in Your perfect peace. Give him wisdom and grace to do everything You have created him to do. Thank You, Father, that he is Your tool to bring reconciliation, change and unity to our land. Amen……
