                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Vincent DeRosa, St. Mary Mother of God Catholic Church, 
Washington, D.C., offered the following prayer:
  O God who creates and sustains us, we acknowledge You to be the 
author of our liberties and tremble at the thought of Your justice, for 
we know that we have a long way to go in building up a healthy union 
among our fellow citizens.
  Grant this Chamber, we pray, the gifts it needs to establish equity 
among all, and to bring the light of education to our people for the 
formation of a prosperous and vigorous civil society.
  We ask this in Your Most Holy Name.
  Amen.
