                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Rachel Landers Vaagenes, Capitol Hill Presbyterian Church, 
Washington, D.C., offered the following prayer:
  Dear God, may we be reminded today that our universe is made of love. 
I ask that this life-giving love be manifest today in the hearts and 
minds of these Representatives of the American people, both those who 
are gathered in this Chamber today, and those who are away.
  To be a Representative of the people is a great gift. May these 
public servants be honorable stewards of the trust and responsibility 
that they have received. May they work together for the common good of 
our country. May they come to their work with generosity of spirit and 
creativity of mind.
  Today and every day, may this body be a reflection of love and care 
and righteousness. May the work done today contribute to the building 
up of our Nation and all who reside here, and indeed may it bless our 
whole world.
  Amen.
