                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  Your word, O God, commends us to seek justice and mercy and in this 
our petition we ask that our words will be translated into actions that 
promote justice and the blessed gifts of mercy. Increase our 
understanding how we may be good stewards of righteousness so that all 
people are treated fairly and enjoy the liberties and freedoms that we 
cherish. May we use our abilities and resources so we are good 
custodians of the riches of the land so that in all things, we are 
faithful to Your word and walk in Your way. Amen.
