                        House of Representatives

Saturday, April 12, 2003
  The House met at 10 a.m.
  The Reverend Stephen J. Rossetti, President, Saint Luke Institute, 
Silver Spring, Maryland, offered the following prayer:
  Good and gracious God, during this season of the year, springtime 
follows winter, and we witness the emergence of new life. We see how 
You bring life out of death, light out of darkness, and hope supplants 
fear.
  Fill us with Your goodness, so that we might be instruments of Your 
hands. May we, filled with this divine grace, be agents of a new 
springtime in our country and in our world.
  Help us to bring Your freedom where there has been tyranny and Your 
healing where there has been much pain.
  You are our hope. As we stretch out our hands into this country and 
into this world, may they be Your hands, offering a springtime of 
freedom and a message of new life.
  As always, we raise our eyes to You, and give thanks.
