Father, we thank You for MLA: Selina Robinson. May the passion and vision that she has for seeing that the province is an even better place for all continue to guide her and grow deeper as she serves as Opposition Critic for Local Government and Sports. May You also see that she has a great team of people in her riding office to keep her in touch with her constituents and their concerns. Protect her and her family. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
