                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Loving God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  In the waning days of this 116th Congress, we ask Your blessing upon 
the Members of this people's House and, most especially, upon 
leadership. It is on their shoulders the most important negotiations of 
this Congress have been placed.
  The coronavirus continues to ravage communities throughout the 
Nation. Bless the Members here with the good will and courage to work 
through differences to find assistance for so many Americans in dire 
need at this time. Help and empower them also as they work toward a 
total funding of our government into a stronger and more hopeful 
future.
  Bless, as well, those who labor among our sick. Keep them safe and 
bless their families for their generosity during these times.
  May all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
