Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rep. LEACH as follows:
Almighty God and Heavenly Father, we praise You for Your goodness to us. We come to You today to ask Your forgiveness and to seek Your direction. Search us, O God, and know our hearts today. Cleanse us from ever sinning and set us free. Guide and bless each of us as we seek to serve our fellowman and our State. Direct us to Your will, as Your word says, "like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him. For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust." Thank You for Your love. We ask these things in the name of Your Son and our Savior. Amen.
