Prayer Practices
Floor Action 5-145 Prayer Practices Legislatures operate with a certain element of pomp, ceremony and procedure that flavor the institution with a unique air of tradition and theatre. The mystique of the opening ceremonies and rituals help to bring order and dignity to the proceedings. One of these opening ceremonies is the offering of a prayer. Use of legislative prayer. The practice of opening legislative sessions with prayer is long- standing. The custom draws its roots from both houses of the British Parliament, which, according to noted parliamentarian Luther Cushing, from time ”immemorial” began each day with a “reading of the prayers.” In the United States, this custom has continued without interruption at the federal level since the first Congress under the Constitution (1789) and for more than a century in many states. Almost all state legislatures still use an opening prayer as part of their tradition and procedure (see table 02-5.50). In the Massachusetts Senate, a prayer is offered at the beginning of floor sessions for special occasions. Although the use of an opening prayer is standard practice, the timing of when the prayer occurs varies (see table 02-5.51). In the majority of legislative bodies, the prayer is offered after the floor session is called to order, but before the opening roll call is taken. Prayers sometimes are given before floor sessions are officially called to order; this is true in the Colorado House, Nebraska Senate and Ohio House. Many chambers vary on who delivers the prayer. Forty-seven chambers allow people other than the designated legislative chaplain or a visiting chaplain to offer the opening prayer (see table 02-5.52). -

Journal of the Senate 94Th Legislature REGULAR SESSION of 2007
No. 1 STATE OF MICHIGAN Journal of the Senate 94th Legislature REGULAR SESSION OF 2007 Senate Chamber, Lansing, Wednesday, January 10, 2007. 12:00 noon. In conformity with the requirements of the Constitution of the state of Michigan, the Senators of the 94th Legislature of the state of Michigan assembled in the Senate Chamber in the Capitol at Lansing this day (being the second Wednesday of January 2007), at twelve o’clock noon, and were called to order by the President, Lieutenant Governor John D. Cherry, Jr. 2 JOURNAL OF THE SENATE [January 10, 2007] [No. 1 Pastor Dominic Russo, Jr., of Oakland Christian Church of Oakland Township offered the following invocation: Dear Lord, Your scripture says Your word declares in Psalm 127: “Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it. Unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.” Lord, at this swearing-in of our State Senators, we stand before You, the judge of heaven and earth, to whom we will all give an account. Lord, we invite You and we ask You to come help our State Senators build Michigan’s house in a new and powerful way: economically, politically, morally, spiritually, and educationally. Lord, at Your coming 2,000 years ago, You were called the Day Star. You were the One who brought heaven’s life to earthly affairs. Lord, I pray that Your hand would be upon our Senators to give them light and to guide them in the way of peace. Lord, without You we are in darkness, and we are at the mercy of human wisdom that is limited.
