Mr. Richard Gotfried - MLA for Calgary-Fish Creek

Dear Heavenly Father, we pray that Your blessing will come upon MLA Richard Gotfried.  We ask You Lord that he would see clearly the direction that he must go and be enlightened by Your wisdom for every situation he is facing.  Lord we ask for people willing to serve in his constituency as they continue to work towards a good future here in Alberta.  We thank You for Mr. Gotfried’s volunteer and service in community associations and that he has words of encouragement for others to excel. Amen.
