                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  Gracious God, from whom we have come and to whom we shall return, we 
pray for fortitude in our personal lives that our actions will blend 
with our words and our words will harmonize with our prayers. May we 
express in our lives an authenticity of spirit that resists the 
pressures that come from a complicated world and conflicting loyalties. 
Remind us each day, O God, to follow the road that leads to justice for 
every person and to hear anew Your words of reconciliation and peace. 
Amen.
