I was honored to again be asked to offer the opening prayer at the first day of the legislative session.

 Matthew relates, “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”

Both the Mishnah and the Koran teach us, “Whosoever saves a single soul is regarded as though he saved a complete world.”

As we address a multitude of issues over these next 90 days, may we remember to “Leave no one behind.”

As you may know, “Leave no one behind” was the campaign slogan of Governor-elect Wes Moore.

This afternoon, I saw him and gave him the printed text I had read from at today’s opening session.
