Journal of the House


First Regular Session, 92nd General Assembly




TENTH DAY, Monday, January 27, 2003


         Representative King in the Chair.


         Prayer by Father David Buescher.


           God, loving God, we begin a new legislative week today. This sovereign state counts on Your collaboration with these representatives, as they continue to put into practice the trust the people have put in them. May Your wisdom illumine the intellects of these men and women.


           May Your spirit brood over any troubled waters or moral chaos bringing clarity of right and goodness. May Your stance of courage, principle, mortification, and indifference to reputation inform and direct the activities of their minds and hearts.

 

           You promise to be with those who put their trust in You. So we claim Your presence here and today. Amen.


         The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.


         The Speaker appointed the following to act as an Honorary Page for the Day, to serve without compensation: Ann Flood.


         The Journal of the ninth day was approved as corrected by the following vote:
