                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Eternal God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  We come to the end of a week during which some Members of this 
people's House have come to finish their service in the Congress and 
others have come to prepare for their opportunity to serve this great 
Nation. It is a time of tremendous transition, a time fraught with 
trepidation and some uncertainty.
  Send Your spirit of peace and calm that all might have confidence in 
Your faithfulness to us and that no matter what lies ahead Your grace 
is abundantly available.
  Bless the Members of this assembly and us all that we would be worthy 
of the call we have been given as Americans. Help us all to be truly 
thankful and appropriately generous in our response.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
