TWENTY-FOURTH DAY, Tuesday, February 15, 2000
Speaker Pro Tem Kreider in the Chair.
Prayer by Reverend Rudy Beard.
Eternal Father, Your resources are available to all who ask. Forgive us for our lack of faith that makes us satisfied with a little, when we could have more.
Give us the faith to believe that no problem, no issue, is beyond You, greater than Your love. May this faith in Your counsel and Your guidance be present at each desk in this House.
Keep us in the joy of life, ready for the day, ready to weigh words and ideas. And to You be honor and glory. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
The Speaker appointed the following to act as Honorary Pages for the Day, to serve without compensation: Alex Hicks, Greg Mueller and Rebecca Price.
