                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord, Father of us all, we thank You for giving us another day. As 
the numbers of new coronavirus infections remain high throughout the 
Nation, we ask Your blessing and protection on those caring for the 
sick. We ask Your healing power to come upon those who are stricken. 
May their recoveries be swift.
  As the Members of the people's House return to the Capitol for a 
special session on Saturday, keep them safe from the heightened threat 
of coronavirus connected to travel across the country. May their 
ongoing deliberations produce bills that redound to the benefit of all 
Americans during these stressful times. To that end, bless them all 
with wisdom, good will, and understanding.
  May all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
