MLA Matt Jeneroux; Edmonton-South West

Dear Heavenly Father, we pray for MLA Matt Jeneroux that you will direct his thoughts and plans as he serves on the Regulatory Review Committee as it relates to the Education Act. We thank you that as he is aware of the many issues surrounding the education of youth in our province, that you will give him and his colleagues the strategies needed to fulfill their goals and  objectives. We also ask that you would fill Mr. Jeneroux with your peace and bring your blessings upon him and his family members. Amen
