be led by Representative Lane Jean. Let's pray, please. Father, we come into your presence in this moment on a beautiful day, thanking you that as the eternal I am, we are always in your presence. I pray for these women and men today
who come to serve the state and the citizens of the state and that you would bless them. We thank you for the warmth of your creation. We thank you for the creation itself and making humankind for the conscience you've placed deep within our hearts. We thank you for men and women like these who desire to be a part of noble purposes and noble work, and I pray you'll bless them in every effort. And we remember the words of Scripture. May the words of our mouth and the meditation of our heart
be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength and our Redeemer. In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty of the rest of all our lives.
