Rep. Bob Genestki, from the 88th District, offered the following invocation:
“Most Loving Father in Heaven-
We thank You for this day and for all You have given us and we realize that it is so very very much.
We thank You for the tremendous and awesome responsibility You have granted each of us - to serve our brothers and sisters from throughout Michigan in this esteemed chamber. In this capacity Lord, we pray that we are guided by the Holy Spirit to do what is right. For we know through the Book of Proverbs that ‘Righteousness protects the innocent’ [13: 6] and ‘The righteous are like a light shining brightly’ [13:9].
We ask that You watch over us as we travel icy roads this season at all hours of the day; and be with our families as we, so often in this job, can not be home with them.
We ask dear Father that You forgive us for our transgressions, especially those in which we have harmed one of Your children. We pray that through Your divine mercy, we may see an opportunity to make things good with those we have sinned against and with You our redeemer.
We ask Father that You remind us that our calling is to serve others humbly as You remind us in the Book of Luke where it is written, ‘For those who make themselves great will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be made great’ [14:11].
Father, we ask that You watch over the brave sons and daughters of Michigan and all of the states who serve our country throughout the globe to defend our country and bring freedom and liberty around the world.
We pray that You be with Michigan so that hard work and faith are rewarded and increased opportunity for all Your children becomes more evident with every passing day.
Lord God, our Maker, our Father and our Savior, we pray all of these things in Your son Jesus Christ’s name-
And all of God’s children said Amen.”

Whereas, The elected school board members are public servants who lead their school districts and communities and maintain excellence in education and instruction throughout the state; and
Whereas, School board members must be visionaries who are dedicated to our students and our state’s future. They must be designers of structures that create achievement and stewards of the public’s trust that utilize shared resources in such a way as to maximize each investment; and
Whereas, School board members are some of the strongest advocates for quality education and have established themselves as integral in the creation of public policy targeted at getting positive results; now, therefore, be it
