            Speaker Pro Tem Pratt in the Chair.


            Prayer by Msgr. Donald W. Lammers.


Bless the Lord, ice and cold,

Sing praise to Him and highly exalt Him forever.

Bless the Lord, frosts and snows,

Sing praise to Him and highly exalt Him forever.

(Daniel 3:49-50, RSV)


              Almighty God, the frost and cold bring us no harm, but stimulate us to be bright and alert for the work of the day. For this we thank You. We pray for those who suffer in the cold.


              In view of all that is going on in State government and in our work, guide us by the light of the Holy Spirit. In the same Holy Spirit, help us always to relish what is right, and to rejoice in Your consolation.


              To You be glory and honor now and forever. Amen.
