MLA Hon Shannon Phillips, Lethbridge-West



Father, I pray that you would encourage Shannon today. Show your faithfulness to her as she faces the conflicts that presently cause her stress. I pray you would fill her with a sense of peace and confidence, and also a strong sense of your love for her. May her heart be encouraged today!
