                        GUEST CHAPLAIN MITCHELL

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I join all of our colleagues in the Senate 
in welcoming and thanking our guest Chaplain today for the beautiful 
prayer he just delivered. He is Rev. Alan Mitchell. With that name, he 
could just as easily be from Sledge, MS, instead of Sligo, Ireland.
  I love the accent he has but, more importantly, the beauty of his 
prayer. So many in America have roots back in Ireland, Scotland, and 
that area of the world. We feel a special kinship to the people in 
Ireland, and we wish them well and pray for them often as they seek 
greater economic opportunity and continued democracy and freedom. We 
are delighted to have Reverend Mitchell with us today.
