                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Merciful God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  As our Nation continues to mourn the deaths of the past days, send 
Your spirit of consolation upon us.
  Bless the Members of this people's House with wisdom and the courage 
to address the pressing difficulties of our time. As they continue the 
work of this assembly, guide them to grow in understanding in attaining 
solutions to our Nation's needs.
  Continue to bless those, as well, charged with protecting and serving 
our country. They, too, need wisdom and insight into the pressure 
points of insecurity among our citizens. Lord, have mercy.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
