"The House shall come to order. The House shall come to order. We'll be led in prayer today by Representative Coy Pugh, who is the pastor of the West Englewood United Methodist Church in Chicago. Guests in the gallery may wish to join us for the invocation. Reverend Pugh."
"Eternal God, we pray. We pray as the smell of the world is upon us. Our eyes are attracted by beautiful objects, by gold, by silver, by all such things. There's great pleasure too, in feeling something agreeable to touch. And material things have various qualities to please each of the other senses. Again, it is gratifying to be held in esteem by other men and women, and to have the power of giving them orders and gaining the mastery over them. This is also the reason why revenge is sweet. But our ambition to obtain all these things, must not lead us astray, must not lead us astray from Your love, from Your mercy, Your compassion, Your justice and Your joy. We were never commanded to be successful, but we were admonished to be faithful. Amen."
"We shall be led in the pledge to the flag by Representative Frank Mautino, from Bureau."
