                                 PRAYER

  The Reverend Canon Patricia M. Thomas, diocesan administrator, 
Episcopal Diocese of Washington and canon of the Washington National 
Cathedral, Washington, DC, offered the following prayer:
  O God, You have bound us together in a common life. You have so 
linked our lives one with another that all we do affects, for good or 
ill, all other lives. Give the Members of this House of Representatives 
courage, wisdom, and foresight to provide for the needs of all the 
people of this land and to fulfill our obligations in the community of 
nations. Guide and direct them in the work they do this day, granting 
them vision to see Your purpose for our Nation and filling them with 
compassion and understanding. Strengthen them with an abiding 
commitment to seek Your truth in all their deliberations and actions. 
This we pray. Amen.
