Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The Senate assembled at 12:00 Noon, the hour to which it stood adjourned and was called to order by the PRESIDENT.

A quorum being present the proceedings were opened with a devotion by the Chaplain as follows:

Beloved, hear the words of the Psalmist, in Psalm 46 (vv. 10-11) (NRSV):

"Be still, and know that I am God!

I am exalted among the nations,

I am exalted in the earth

The Lord of hosts is with us;

The God of Jacob is our refuge" (fortress)
Let us pray.

We thank You, O God of all the earth and the cosmos, for Your providence and mercy which has watched over us, and brought us back to this place of service.

Give us hearts to love Thee,

Minds to know Thee, and

Voices to utter Thy truths.

Be Thou the unseen, but ever real, counselor at every committee meeting, and every place where decisions are being made.

Fulfill now, O Lord, in this quiet moment the ancient promise,

"Be still and know that I am God."

And so make us equal to today's tasks!

Amen.

The PRESIDENT called for Petitions, Memorials, Presentments of Grand Juries and such like papers.
