Speaker Jetton in the Chair.
Prayer by Father Donald W. Lammers.
Let us pray.
“Sun and moon, bless the Lord.
Stars of heaven, bless the Lord...
Let the earth bless the Lord.
Praise and exalt him above all forever.”
(Daniel, Chapter 3)
We praise You, Almighty God, for this beautiful day. For the fourth day of this week, we gather in service to the people of Missouri. As we study and discuss the issues, may we be concerned not only for the well being of the people in our districts but also for the well being of the entire State.
May our vision as representatives of the people extend beyond material things and encompass the values of justice, equity, fairness and truth.
In this moment of prayer, may each of us invite You to be our Companion and Consultant throughout the work of this Session.
We pray to You who are our God, forever and ever. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
