Let us pray. Holy Creator, God, we gather to begin this Fourth Session of the 14th Legislative Assembly thankful for the natural beauty of this Territory and attentive to the concerns of the people in our communities. We thank You, God, for the privileges and responsibilities of political freedom in our country. We ask now that Your spirit would be present as this session attends to the work set before it. Help each Member to be ready to speak their truth wisely and to listen to one another with discernment and respect, that decisions made here will truly honour the very best intentions for the lands and waters and all the peoples of the Northwest Territories. We pray in the name of Jesus who teaches us justice and calls us towards healing and peace. Amen.
