                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord of us all, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  Continue to bless those who labor still to find agreement on omnibus 
and further coronavirus relief legislation. In the wake of the work of 
the electoral college, and the confirmation of our new President and 
Vice-President-elect, may our Nation now be more focused on what lies 
ahead.
  Bring success to the work of Congress. Bring success to the rapid 
distribution of vaccines, and confidence to those who hesitate to 
trust, though history has given them cause for that hesitation. Help 
us, O Lord, to learn to trust and rely upon one another as citizens of 
this country.
  Comfort those who suffer from the coronavirus, and those who mourn 
for lost loved ones during these holy seasons when, in normal times, 
families and friends have always gathered. Help us to look forward in 
hope and peace.
  May all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
