Good Morning Vince,
Thank you for reaching out to me. I apologize for the delay. I'm striving to answer all questions/calls/emails within 24 hours. To answer your question, yes, I promise to look into the appropriateness of prayer at a public meeting. I understand this is of great importance to many in our community. Please feel free to contact me anytime. Sincerely, Amy. Sent from iPhone

Hmm.
