                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  We are thankful, gracious God, for people who work for justice and 
who long for the truth, and who receive happiness and satisfaction from 
helping others in their need. In spite of the trials of the day, in 
spite of the expectation of so many, in spite of our limitations and 
mistakes, we know that we achieve our true humanity when we strive to 
be what You would have us be and rise to the responsibilities we have 
been given. And may Your peace that passes all human understanding be 
with us now and evermore. Amen.
