Lord today we pray for Stephen. The people of his riding have been blessed because of his service and we honour him. We pray for him and his role as Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Energy. We ask that you would help him to work well with the Minister and the staff, that the people of Ontario would see good government and be blessed. Give him a renewed vision and passion for the role of MPP and his other duties. Keep him safe as he travels across the province. We ask this all in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Oops! Yesterday we mistakenly included Michael Coteau in our daily posts. He is a former Ontario MPP, but after last Fall’s federal election, he now is a sitting MP for his riding. Our apologies for the mistake.“
