Holy Lord, we thank you for MLA Doyle Vermette. In Your word it says in Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” We pray that you give strength to Doyle and that You give him fortitude when times become burdensome. Bless him as he serves the people. Lord bless Doyle and his wife Sandra and their children. Give them your joy in the uncertain times in which we live. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
