I've never done this before so I'm sure I'll be nervous. I will try my best to speak from my heart about what I believe this Bill might lead to. I'm 58 years old and have been sober for almost 2 years. The urge to drink is something I'm not bothered with anymore, thank God, but I attend AA meetings in hopes of helping others in their recovery. We're all aware of the statistics pertaining to alcohol abuse. For me, they were just numbers on a page having no meaning until I started meeting some of those 'numbers' in person. Some men headed to prison terms, women who have been beaten, a teenage girl in a wheelchair, I was in one meeting watching a grown man cry over his broken family. Worst of all is the devastating effects these problems have on their children. At least when one parent dies there is a chance to move on.

  • January 12, 2009, 2:00 P.M
    4 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE Journal of the House FIRST DAY HALL OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, TOPEKA, KS, Monday, January 12, 2009, 2:00 p.m. This being the day fixed by the Constitution of the State of Kansas for the assembling of the 2009 session of the legislature, the House of Representatives was called to order at 2:00 p.m. by Brad Bryant, Deputy Assistant for the Secretary of State. Prayer by Clint Decker, President and Evangelist, Great Awakenings, Inc., Clay Center, and husband of former Rep. Kathe Decker: Almighty God, Creator of heaven and earth, you say of yourself, ‘‘for I am a great king’’ (The Bible, Malachi 1:4). It is from your throne in heaven long ago that you instituted the system of human government. Then you said those who served in it were, ‘‘servants of God.’’ Father in heaven, as we begin this 2009 legislative session, I pray that these state representatives may be good stewards of the authority and influence that you have entrusted them with. When the temptation comes to surrender to greed, deceit or selfish ambition may they quickly choose the wiser path. May they choose to walk humbly, govern without favoritism or partiality and be an equal voice for all. In ad- dition, I pray for your undeserved mercy and ask for a blanket of divine protection across this state in 2009. Protect us from natural disasters that bring destruction of life and property. Protect us from further economic hard- ship. Protect us from the violence and crime we see in our neighborhoods.
