                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Loving God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  We thank You for Your ongoing presence and sustaining grace in us 
all, and Your concern for our Nation. Continue to bless and inspire the 
men and women who serve in the people's House.
  May they be encouraged by any movement that has occurred, and may the 
hopes and prayers of the American people, and indeed the world, for 
healthy and productive legislation be met with results inspired by Your 
spirit.
  Forgive our failures, our lack of faith. May the good intentions of 
all acting in this Chamber be rewarded by solutions to our struggles 
that benefit our Nation.
  May all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
