                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Eternal God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  We ask today that You bless the Members of the people's House as they 
visit their home districts. May they listen and interact constructively 
and safely with those whom they represent.
  Bless also their families in the time they have together at home so 
that when they return, they are rested and energized to take on the 
important work that faces them concerning our economy and national 
security in today's world.
  Bless their constituents as well. Help them to understand fully the 
issues facing their Representatives, and with generous hearts empower 
the Members of this House to consider not only the interests of the 
local district but those of the Nation and the world, which look to our 
great democracy as a beacon of hope. May we as a Nation be worthy of 
the hope placed in us.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory. 
Amen.
