                                 PRAYER

  The Reverend Dr. Richard P. Camp, Jr., Executive Director of A 
Christian Ministry in the National Parks and formerly Chaplain, United 
States Military Academy, offered the following prayer:
  Let us give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His mercy endures 
forever.
  We pause a moment, Heavenly Father, before the business of this day, 
to acknowledge You. Your love surrounds us, Your mercy upholds us, Your 
goodness blesses us.
  Graciously give to the Members and all who serve in this House the 
wisdom and courage to lead us in the way of righteousness and peace. 
May the ripple effect of their decisions bring hope to all people for 
generations to come.
  In Your strong name we pray. Amen.
