The House assembled at 12:00 noon.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk, Jr., as follows:

Our thought for today is from Psalm 4:3: "Know that the Lord has set apart the faithful for himself; the Lord hears when I call to Him."

Let us pray. Dear Lord, be gracious to these Your people and hear my prayer that I will both lie down and sleep in peace; for You alone, O Lord, make us lie down in safety. We give thanks You have brought us to another day of service to these Representatives and Staff. Keep them ever in Your care. Bless and keep our defenders of freedom and first responders who serve us in good and bad times. Look in favor upon our World, Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, Staff, and all who labor in this vineyard. Keep in safety our women and men in the Armed Forces and those with hidden wounds.

Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayers. Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE.

After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of Friday, the SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE ordered it confirmed.

We share our deep condolences and prayers with his family and his beloved wife, Judy, who is here with us today.

Rep. Ben Connell
