                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  We pray, gracious God, that we will not be content simply to follow 
old paths and repeat meaningless patterns, but that our hearts and 
minds would be open to new adventures and new opportunities of service. 
May Your good Spirit breathe into our souls a freshness that cleanses 
our ideas, our hopes, and our dreams and may we truly look to Your 
guidance for the days ahead. Teach us to grow in Your grace and trust 
in Your goodness, this day and every day. Amen.
