                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  God of mercy and goodness, may this midday moment of prayer and 
dedication be received as a welcome gift by all, refreshing Your people 
and clarifying our purpose in serving this Nation.
  Bless the work that Congress has begun this day. Rectify any defects 
and strengthen its integrity. Let us finish the tasks You set before us 
in a way that pleases You and gives glory to this Nation and Your Holy 
Name, both now and forever.
  Amen.
