The House assembled at 10:00 A.M.

Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:

Our Father God, we come to You conscious of our shortcomings, yet confident that You are with us and that with You our shortcomings are forgiven, discouragement gives way to assurance, fear changes to faith. We are what we are, have what we have, not because we deserve it, not because we have earned it, but solely because Your goodness has attended us, Your strength has made us strong, Your love has undergirded us, and Your presence has blessed us all our days. Help us to be worthy of Your unceasing blessings, and to use these gifts in service to You and to our fellowbeings. Thus may every day be a glorious adventure in great living as we know that "His mercy endures forever" (Psalm 118:29b). Amen.
