[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 152 (2006), Part 8] [Senate] [Page 10376] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov] prayer The PRESIDING OFFICER. I am very pleased today to have the prayer be given by our guest Chaplain from the great State of Michigan, Rev. Timothy Tuthill of the First United Methodist Church in Mason, MI. The guest Chaplain offered the following prayer: Let us pray. Almighty and Everlasting God, You created order out of chaos and have given us life and as we gather here today we are reminded of Your grace and trust in us all. Through Your wisdom, O God, You have shared out of Your abundance and gifted us with minds to think and a spirit to act. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve our country as elected leaders and servants. Guide our elected officials as they debate and discern and may our Senators seek Your great counsel and be mindful of the needs of our communities, States, country, and world. In this time, let us be ready to stand firm and be guided by the principles that led the Founders of our country to pursue liberty and justice for all. Continue to be with all those who are in harm's way today and guide our Nation and world as we continue to look for peaceful ways to resolve conflict near and far. We ask this and all things in your Holy Name. Amen. ____________________
