                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Almighty God of the universe, we give You thanks for giving us 
another day. We thank You that You give us a share in Your creative 
work, having endowed each with unique and important talents.
  On this day, we ask Your blessing on the men and women of the 
people's House who have been entrusted with the care of this great 
Nation's people. Because of the great blessings You have bestowed on 
our Nation, may we embrace the opportunity to build a better world 
beyond our borders as well.
  May all that we do this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
