Vol. 140


WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1994

No. 145


House of Representatives

  The House met at 12 noon.
  The Reverend Gabriel O'Reilly, pastor, St. David's Church, Davie, FL, 
offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, You spoke to man a message of peace. Your message took 
form in the vision of our forefathers as they fashioned a nation where 
people might live as one. This message lives on in our midst as a task 
for men and women today and a promise for tomorrow.
  We thank You for Your blessings in the past and for all that with 
Your help we must yet achieve. Hear our prayer for this House of 
Representatives. By their wisdom and integrity may there be lasting 
prosperity and peace. As they decide, debate, divide, and appropriate, 
teach them the wisdom of the old Indian proverb ``we did not inherit 
this land from our forefathers; we are merely borrowing it from our 
children.'' Amen.
