                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  God of the universe, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  As the Members of the people's House gather on this final day of the 
113th Congress, we ask Your blessing upon them.
  May our Nation's citizens be grateful for their service rendered 
these past 2 years but also justified in their hope that those 
returning for the new Congress and those joining them will move toward 
ever greater accomplishments to benefit our great Nation.
  For the failures of the past 2 years, whatever their cause, we ask 
Your forgiveness and seek Your assurance that it is Your love that 
calls us to correcting all failures, not fear of Your anger.
  Bless as well those who leave Congress this day. May they be 
successful and productive in whatever are their future endeavors.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.NOTICE
