MLA Dan D'Autremont, Cannington

Father I thank you for Dan and the service he has provided to the people of Saskatchewan during his time with the government.  Father I would ask of you that You reach into his heart and cause a yearning and desire for something greater.  Often, as we age and approach the end of our tenure in a place of significance, we begin to feel a sense of loss and wonder whats next.  Father this is a wonderful time to draw Dan.  Have him reach out to those around him, those who know and trust in you. Let his heart be softened to the hearing and receiving of your word.  And Father, cause a yearning to explore what you have to offer.
