                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Loving God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  As we face a new day, help us to discover the power of resting in 
You. Send Your Spirit down upon the Members of the people's House.
  Grant them wisdom, insight and vision that the work they do will be 
for the betterment of our Nation during a time of struggle for so many 
Americans.
  In extraordinary times, people from around the world are coming 
together and recognizing shared threats to peace and prosperity among 
all people of goodwill. May the men and women of this House emerge as 
leading statesmen and women to address issues that transcend the here 
and now of political tides.
  Help them to identify policies that will redound to the benefit of 
our children and grandchildren.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
