THE SIXTY-EIGHTH DAY
Carson City (Friday), April 11, 2003
Assembly called to order at 11:07 a.m.
Mr. Speaker presiding.
Roll called.
All present.
Prayer by the Chaplain, Reverend Albert Tilstra.
We pray for those who live in cities, O God, who live surrounded by tall buildings and bustling crowds. We pray for people who live in rural areas as well, for those who appreciate verdant fields, rolling desert hills, and earthy fragrances. We pray for those who live in luxury and those who struggle in poverty, for the people who are gainfully employed, and those who beg for change. We pray for the ones without friends and for those who confidently assume everyone loves them. We are all Americans. We are all connected. Help us feel that bond. If we have plenty, inspire us to share. If we are happy and content, remind us to reach out to others. If we are literate, may we work that all might read. We do not live for ourselves alone; help us to work for liberty and justice for all.
Amen.
Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag.
Assemblyman Oceguera moved that further reading of the Journal be dispensed with, and the Speaker and Chief Clerk be authorized to make the necessary corrections and additions.
