                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Dear God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  Our Nation is again tragically impacted by a mass shooting. May our 
leaders, and we all, be mindful of the sacredness of lives lost in 
violence, and not so define the event as to further traumatize those 
who suffer intimately from it.
  We ask Your special blessing upon the Members of this people's House. 
In these days, give them wisdom that they might execute their 
responsibilities to the benefit of all Americans.
  Bless them, O God, and be with them and with us all this day and 
every day to come. May all that is done be for Your greater honor and 
glory.
  Amen.
