Opening Prayer Given by the Guest Chaplain:
I come as a Christian and invite you in your own faith to pray with me now.
God our Father,
We come before you with passionate hearts and minds for the people we represent and this land we love.
I ask you to bless these Representatives. You know their heart for their constituency, their hope for this country and prayer for peace in our world. You have witnessed the agony they feel when decisions are made and votes are cast in the best interest of this country. Let their vote be with integrity, even if it means being misunderstood for the position they have taken on the matter at hand.
I ask your blessing, not for their honor, but on this land you have entrusted to their care. When their term is finished and they no longer darken these hallowed halls, may America remember their character, demonstrated by the decisions they will have made.
Give them your wisdom, and discernment that they may demonstrate your love.
Amen.
