  The House met at 2 p.m.
  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Almighty and eternal God, through Your provident goodness, and guided 
by Your Spirit, you have brought us together for this fall session of 
the 108th Congress of the United States of America.
  Keep us safe and healthy throughout these days. May all our thoughts, 
words, and actions be pleasing in Your sight and serve the lasting 
interests of this Nation, so that, as a people, we may become a beacon 
of light and a lesson in freedom to the rest of the world.
  This we pray, now and forever. Amen.
