Dear Heavenly Father we thank you for Mr. Mike Allen, MLA for Fort McMurray – Wood Buffalo. We ask that you would give him wisdom as he serves on the special advisory committee to the Minister of Transportation in regards to the future development of Hwy.63. We pray that he would know what steps to take when, as he works on this important project. May he be blessed with strength and vitality as he fulfills his role in the legislature.  In Jesus name, Amen
