                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  Let us pray using the words of the 23rd Psalm:
  The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want; He makes me to lie down in 
green pastures, He leads me beside the still waters; He restores my 
soul. He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. 
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no 
evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. 
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies; Thou 
annointest my head with oil, my cup overflows. Surely goodness and 
mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the 
house of the Lord for ever. Amen.
