Second Regular Session, 90th General Assembly
THIRTY-FIRST DAY, Monday, February 28, 2000
Speaker Pro Tem Kreider in the Chair.
Prayer by Father David Buescher.
Lord, another week has begun. We turn to You again as we begin. Instill in each of us renewed dedication. Distill all our comings and goings into some coherent pattern. Forestall those personal bickerings and any of our hankerings after glory into remembrance of what we do here - which is to serve the people You have seen fit to offer to us. May the deliberations of this day begin in our peaceful remembrance of Your compassionate presence and proceed towards a better Missouri for us all. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
