Pastor Dan Burnum-Steggerda of Shelby Congregational United Church of Christ of Hart offered the following invocation:

Holy, holy holy, Lord God Almighty, God in three persons, blessed Trinity, we kneel before You as we lift this prayer to You.

In love, God, You create with justice and righteousness. Love incarnate, Jesus, You teach what justice and righteousness are. Presence of love, Holy Spirit, You inspire and You encourage justice and righteousness.

God, may You inspire these good people assembled here this morning with the mishpat and the tsedeqah—the justice and righteousness—of Your Old Testament prophets. They have answered Your call to service by responding as Isaiah did: “Here am I. Send me.” Continue, God, to lead them and guide them in the ways of Your justice and righteousness, Your mercy and peace, and, yes, Your love.

Jesus, may You inspire these good people assembled here this morning with compassion coupled with challenge, with discernment coupled with tolerance, and with accountability coupled with unconditional agape—love. Continue, Jesus, to call them, to lead them, and to remind them of their solemn oaths to serve people—people from all walks of life; people of all nationalities, races, religions, preferences, and economic levels; the people like those whom they serve.

Blessed Trinity, may You inspire these good people assembled here this morning with the confidence to do what they are called to do—what they are elected to do—to ensure that all Michiganders have the ability and access to justice and righteousness, the mercy and freedom, and the peace of love, that was given to us all at the inception of creation and has been fought for throughout the ages.

These are our prayers and hopes for today. May they be our realities forevermore. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we pray. Amen.

The President, Lieutenant Governor Calley, led the members of the Senate in recital of the Pledge of Allegiance.
