Things that Matter to Us
Our Core Values
Heavenly Father,
We are grateful for the opportunity to serve our community and our country.
Help us to listen with open minds, speak with honesty and respect, and remember that public service is a responsibility and a privilege. Give us the courage to stand by our principles while treating those who may disagree with dignity and respect.
We ask that you guide our leaders, our families, our communities and our nation. May our actions be guided by integrity, fairness, compassion, and genuine desire to serve others.
Bless this committee, all those who serve, and all who reside in our communities.
A system of checks and balances should be used to prevent the abuse of power.
The only reliable basis for sound government and just human relations is Natural Law.
The highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free-market economy and minimum of government regulations.
A free society cannot survive as a republic without a broad program of general education.
Problems should be solved as close to the level at which they originate as possible.
