Thanks to John Detwiler, Pastor, Chestnut St. Baptist Church, for this prayer!

The Honorable__________,

I am writing to thank you for the effort and sacrifice you are making by serving our community. I am praying that God will encourage you as you take on the challenges of leadership. I am also praying that God will give you wisdom and the courage to do what is right despite the political outcome.

I also want to encourage you to turn to God's Word, the Bible, and to prayer as you make the difficult decisions required of you as a public official.

"Choose for yourselves today whom you will serve. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Joshua 24:15

In my Prayers,
