                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Father, our souls long for You, for we find strength and 
wisdom in Your presence. Guide our lawmakers to put their trust in You, 
seeking in every undertaking to know and do Your will. When they go 
through difficulties, may they remember that, with Your help, they can 
accomplish the seemingly impossible. Give them a faith that will trust 
You even when the darkness is blacker than a thousand midnights.
  And, Lord, as we mourn the deaths of Congresswoman Jackie Walorski 
and her two staffers Zachery and Emma, comfort our hearts. We pray in 
Your merciful Name. Amen.
