                        House of Representatives

  The House met at 10 a.m.
  The Chaplain, the Reverend James David Ford, D.D., offered the 
following prayer:
  Of all the gifts that You so generously have given, O God, we are 
appreciative of the gift of friendship. For those who support us all 
the day long and for those whose kindness and concern help us meet the 
challenges of the day, we offer these words of thanksgiving and praise. 
May each of us learn to support each other with respect and 
appreciation, with trust and faith and with that bond of love that 
stands all the tests of time. May Your blessing, O God, be with us now 
and evermore. Amen.
