MLA: BUCKLEY BELANGER - ATHABASCA

Lord, thank You for MLA: Buckley Belanger and the attention he gives to his constituency and the people of Saskatchewan. We ask that You would give him extra strength and wisdom in his role as NDP Deputy Whip and the critic for multiple portfolios. May You also give him and his family an enjoyable spring filled with hope and joy. Help them to prosper and develop in their professional, personal and spiritual lives. We thank You for answered prayer. Amen.
