                                 PRAYER

  Monsignor Stephen J. Rossetti, Catholic University of America, 
Washington, D.C., offered the following prayer:
  Good and gracious God, we are mindful of Americans around the world 
who are in harm's way, especially those defending our Nation, first 
responders, and those in Afghanistan. We pray for their health and 
their safety.
  Grant the deceased eternal rest and consolation to their families. We 
continue to remember those suffering from the pandemic and especially 
those who have died and their loved ones.
  And for all, we pray for the gift of hope which ultimately finds its 
source in You. May You dispel the darkness and shine the light of Your 
grace in this Chamber, around the Nation, and throughout the world.
  We pray this in Your holy name.
  Amen.
