                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Dear Lord, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  We come to You as a Nation in the midst of great uncertainty and 
worry. As people look for causes and solutions, the temptation is great 
to seek ideological position.

[[Page H5842]]

  We ask that You might send Your Spirit of Peace and Reconciliation, 
that instead of ascendency over opponents, the Members of this people's 
House, and all elected to represent our Nation, might work together, 
humbly, recognizing the best in each other's hopes, to bring stability 
and direction toward a strong future.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
