                                 PRAYER

  The Reverend David Lauer, Campus Minister, Lakeland College, 
Sheboygan, Wisconsin, offered the following prayer:
  O Lord and Maker of us all, whose light shines upon us all and whose 
guidance is for all, we humbly ask that Your grace rest upon this House 
today and that Your will be done here today.
  For we acknowledge and thank You for all the blessings we share, 
especially the freedom we enjoy as Your children day by day, and the 
joy of living together as one family, and for Your care and keeping in 
all times and in all seasons.
  Bless now Your servants in this place. Bless and lead them as they 
care for one another, for this land and for Your world. With Your mercy 
and Your love, bless and guide each Member, that in all things today, 
they might add to the beauty and peace of Your world and thus add honor 
and glory unto Your holy name.
  Amen.
