"We need to recognize the uniting power of          prayer. That is why, as co-chairmen of the Congressional Prayer          Caucus, we introduced a bipartisan resolution, H.Res. 547,          supporting the National Day of Prayer and urging all Americans          to come together to pray and to reaffirm the importance prayer          has had in our nation's history. By recalling historic national          calls to prayer from Presidents Washington, Lincoln, Franklin D.          Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Clinton, and George W. Bush,          this resolution serves as a reminder of the many ways that          prayer has united and strengthened the American people.
          
          "We will continue to disagree over courses of action, but we can          bridge those disagreements and overcome these certain challenges          by uniting in prayer."
