                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Loving and gracious God, we give You thanks for giving us another 
day.
  As the Members of the people's House regather after our quadrennial 
elections, may Your spirit of peace descend upon them. As the 116th 
Congress moves toward a close, may all here attend to the business at 
hand, providing what is needed for the benefit of our Nation.
  May all Members, regardless of the outcome of the election, trust 
that their future service, be it in the House or not, will be imbued 
with Your grace. May they be confident that Americans of good will are 
grateful for their service in the past and wish them well into the 
future.
  Throughout our Nation the coronavirus continues to spread 
dangerously. Continue to bless those who attend to those who are 
suffering and their families. We thank You for the advances that are 
taking place in developing effective vaccines to address the plague.
  Bless us all this day and all days to come. And may all that is done 
this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
