Rabbi transcript: O great and immutable Lord, we ask that Your beneficent presence fill these Chambers. Cause the essence of wisdom, knowledge, and discernment to fill the hearts and minds of our Nation's chosen representatives. Enable them to discharge their awesome responsibilities with courage and foresight. Bless them with equal measures of justice and mercy. May their sense of wit be tempered by true compassion. May their desire for effective change be met with patience and forbearance. Bless them. O Lord, as they steer this Nation's democratic course through sometimes troubled and turbulent waters. When ill winds blow, create for them a haven of safety and security. Enfold them securely in the comforting web of Your grace. Bring to fruition all their noble and worthy plans. Allow them, O Lord, to reflect honor and glory upon our great democracy so that all who know us will call us truly blessed. Amen.
Rep. Roe transcript:
Mr. Speaker, It is my pleasure to have Lt. Comdr. Jonathan A. Panitz, a former constituent, as the guest chaplain for today. Chaplain Panitz, who is currently the head of the policy branch in the Office of the Chief of Chaplains at the Pentagon, is the son of a dear friend, the late Rabbi David H. Panitz. Chaplain Panitz received his B.S. degree from New York University in 1968 and his rabbinic ordination in 1975 from the Leo Baeck College of London, England. He also received a masters degree in biomedical ethics and moral theology from Catholic University in 1988, and a masters degree in guidance and counseling from Providence College in 1991. He is married and has three children. Chaplain Panitz has served congregations in Salisbury, MD, and Fall River, MA. As a Navy chaplain, he has held positions in Yokosuka, Japan: Norfolk, VA; and Newport, RI. He is a member of the Rabbinical Assembly, the American Mensa Society, the American Association of Counseling Therapists— specialty in hypnotherapy, and the Jewish War Veterans. As I mentioned above, he is currently the head of the policy branch of the Office of the Chief of Chaplains. I am very pleased to have him here today, Mr. Speaker.
