                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Lord God, sustainer of our lives, give us courage to not run 
from difficulties. Help us to see that problems and challenges come 
with a life of service. In spite of burdens, show us the joys to come 
that will make the sacrifices worthwhile.
  Infuse our Senators with the power of self-denying love. Empower them 
to help build not only a safer but also a more just world.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
