                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Almighty Merciful God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  We pray for the gift of wisdom to all with great responsibility in 
this House for the leadership of our Nation.
  May all the Members have the vision of a world where respect and 
understanding are the marks of civility, and where honor and integrity 
are the marks of one's character.
  As Members take time in the coming week for constituency visits, give 
them the ability to hear the voices of all in their districts so that 
when they return, they are focused on the important work to be done.
  Bless us this day and every day, and may all that is done within 
these hallowed halls be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
