                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Loving God, thank You for giving us another day.
  We beseech You to consider the concerns and prayers of Your people as 
the coronavirus continues to spread in so many States in our Union. 
Bless those who are ill with recovery, and those who labor to find a 
medical solution to the pandemic.
  Bless us with Your love, for more love is needed now. Angry and 
volatile gatherings have given way to intentional public expression for 
a change in police practice and culture. May reforms that come from the 
principles in conversation with one another benefit both police 
organizations and policemen, and the communities which they serve.
  Bless our Congress with wisdom and good will, that far-reaching 
solutions might be found to engage the national government wherever 
that might be appropriate and necessary.
  Bless us all this day, and every day, and may all that we do be for 
Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
