                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Loving God, Father of us all, thank You for giving us another day.
  As the numbers of those infected by coronavirus continue to rise 
throughout our country, send us Your spirit of healing and comfort. 
Healthcare workers tire with the unrelenting burden of caring for so 
many who are ill. Strengthen them. May all Americans be sincere in 
their appreciation of heroic efforts to tend to those in need.
  As Members return to their districts, may the work of building and 
rebuilding our communities show signs of progress and hope. These are 
difficult days, when impatience and frustration are dangerous 
temptations. Give us faith, hope, and, perhaps most importantly, love, 
that we might together build toward a newly thriving common weal.
  May all that is done throughout our country this day be for Your 
greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
