                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord our God, shower Your blessings of welcome and peace upon all the 
new pages, interns and other staff who begin their work here in the 
U.S. House of Representatives for this session of Congress.
  You are the God of light. With each dawning day, You provide Your 
people with new assurances of Your love.
  Bless the continuing work of the 109th Congress, that the common good 
and protection of this Nation be secured and that, by working together, 
all may give You praise and glory, now and forever. Amen.
