         Representative Luetkemeyer in the Chair.


         Prayer by Reverend James Earl Jackson.


           Heavenly Father, God of mercy and grace, it is written, “You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble”, so may You hide us and preserve us through the days ahead.


           Dear Lord, we stand humbled by the great responsibilities entrusted to us. May we not betray that trust.


           May we incline our ear to wisdom and apply our hearts to understanding so that we might complete the tasks at hand.


           Father, may we desire humility and honor, and be willing to serve and cooperate.


           Now, may the grace of our Lord, and the love of God be with us all.


           In the name of Your Son we pray. 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: Devin Carr, Jenna Carr and Jessica Fetsch.
