St. Peter's Catholic Church
Washington, DC
Date of Prayer: 12/16/2016
Opening Prayer Given by the Guest Chaplain:
O Father of us all, You have woven Your divine providence into the very fabric of our Nation.
Against all odds You were instrumental in bringing it to birth. In the face of our enemies, from without and from within, You have safeguarded the freedom for which so many of our brothers and sisters have given their lives. You have endowed our country with natural and human resources that make it a land flowing with milk and honey and a beacon of hope for those who yearn for the freedom that we enjoy.
With these blessings, O God, comes the responsibility to use them wisely. Inspire and guide the Members of this Chamber, so that through them You may bring to fruition the good work You have begun in us. God bless these United States of America.
Amen.
