                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  Let us pray using words from Psalm 90:
  Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Before 
the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth 
and the world, from everlasting to everlasting thou art God.
  For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is 
past, or as a watch in the night.
  So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. 
Amen.
