Journal of the House



Second Regular Session, 90th General Assembly


THIRTY-EIGHTH DAY, Thursday, March 9, 2000



Speaker Gaw in the Chair.



Prayer by Father David Buescher.



Be merciful to this House this day. In You, God, dry bones are raised to life. Renew those whose lives have grown dry with lost expectations. In You, God, parched hearts find living water. Refresh those whose spirits are parched from lack of trust in their contacts with others, or from their being used by others.



God, in You the hungry feed upon the word of life. Nourish those who have fed on food alien to the loving and forgiving human spirit. Lord, in You, even the selfish are reconciled. Restore those weakened or broken in their bonds with You, and those who have used others for their own designs. Hear these words and pleas in this House, Lord, and remain with each of us now and forever. 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: Cieara Hart, Douye Aweke - Uge, Scott Wright, Tony Badra, Michelle Quirk, Jordan Hale, Kevin Tarpley, Darvee Graham, Michelle Cypret and Zuzie Jaouni.
