Speaker Kreider in the Chair.
Prayer by Father David Buescher.
All the heavens declare Your glory, and all the earth Your handiwork, Creator of the universe. The heavens we leave to You, God. We solicit support and grace, however, to try to continue to improve the lot of our earthly society within our state of Missouri.
As we begin this legislative week, we pray for our citizens. We count on Your succor in building up those laws and statutes which might bring our culture closer to Your heavenly commonwealth. Guide and direct these legislators this week and all this session, and protect their families back home. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
