                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  We pray, O God, for Your gift of healing--healing of body, mind, and 
spirit. Our petitions are for estrangement to be replaced by 
reconciliation and alienation to be replaced by trust. We pray that 
Your spirit will touch people's lives, that illness will be displaced 
by strength, and anxiety be overcome with confidence. We place these 
petitions before You, O God, that Your power, that created the Heavens 
and the Earth and every living person, will live in our lives and 
nurture us along life's way. This is our earnest prayer. Amen.
