                                 PRAYER

  Merciful God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.

[[Page H5258]]

  In this year of post-9/11, we pray that the children of this 
generation and their children's children may never have to experience 
another day like the one that flooded our TV screens so many years ago.
  Protect and guide this Nation to a new security, built upon human 
integrity and communal solidarity with all who love freedom and human 
dignity, while respecting the lives and beliefs of others.
  Empower the Members of Congress and governments around the world to 
establish just laws and seek the common good that will lead to ways of 
equity and peace.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
