                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord our God, in nature as well as the scriptures, You reveal Your 
creative goodness and Your saving power. Give us grateful hearts for 
all we have received and make us good stewards of all we possess. Help 
us to find balance in our lives. May all who labor find satisfaction in 
their work and enjoyment in their leisure.
  May those who are retired, ill, or incapacitated discover 
involvements that engage their gifts and reveal Your peaceful presence. 
You are the Lord and source of life and love now and forever. Amen.
