                                 PRAYER

  Reverend John P. Fitzgibbons, S.J., Regis University, Denver, 
Colorado, offered the following prayer:
  Most Holy God, please unite and guide the leaders in this House to 
recognize, to speak for, and to safeguard the vulnerable and the 
marginalized in all corners of our Nation.
  Help us to hear and to champion the rights of dreamers of all colors, 
all contexts, and all ages, especially the young, whose ardent desire 
is to know and to build a better society.
  Help us to illuminate the path and to advocate for our country's 
learners and their teachers so that access to education and the power 
of knowledge will continue to produce servant leaders committed to 
democracy, equality, and justice.
  Help us to unite our hearts and our minds, to share freely of our 
gifts, to reflect critical thought and responsible action on moral and 
ethical issues, and to be men and women for others that both You and 
our constituents expect and deserve.
  Amen.
