                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Loving God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  You sent Your prophet Isaiah to Your people when they were in need of 
hope and vision. May Isaiah's prophetic words guide us still.
  Send Your spirit upon this Nation and this Congress, that we may be 
open to hearing Your word and actively seek the salvation You alone can 
bring.
  Make of us, and the Members of this people's House, a people of 
compassion and holiness. In pursuing the avenues of justice for all, 
may we be a sign to the community of nations.
  The issues of this coming week promise to be contentious. Send Your 
spirit of amity and understanding, that the proceedings of the 
legislative sessions might be a model of good governance.
  Lord, bless the Members of the people's House today and all days, and 
may all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
