                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord God and Eternal Father, though Your people walk in the valley of 
darkness, no evil should they fear, for they follow in faith the call 
of You the shepherd.
  Revive our drooping spirit as You invite us to the banquet of equal 
justice. Attune our minds to the sound of Your voice. Guide this Nation 
along the right path, that we may know the strength of Your 
outstretched arm to protect us and enjoy the comfort of Your presence, 
now and forever. Amen.
