                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Gracious Lord, You are the source of strength for the faith-filled. 
You are the source of courage to those in need. You are the source of 
hope to all who place their trust in You.
  Bless the Members of the House of Representatives as they face a 
schedule of ongoing challenges and opportunities in this 108th 
Congress. Give them hearts readily moved by the concerns of those who 
come to them in need. Grant to them also a broad vision that will 
embrace national interests so that they may raise the hopes of people 
for a better world in which to establish their homes and raise their 
children.
  To You be the honor, glory, and power now and forever. Amen.
