                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord of goodness and harbinger of peace, be with the Congress of the 
United States this week. Guide decisions that will resist evil, 
establish good order, and strengthen relationships between people of 
good will. May the impulse toward reconciliation empower Members that 
they may lead this Nation to transform unjust structures and restore 
respect for the dignity of all men and women created in Your likeness.
  Lord, through rational argument, may our government and others across 
the globe reawaken the spiritual energy in people that is needed to 
become true promoters of peace and justice throughout the world. We 
pray, calling upon Your Holy Name, now and forever. Amen.
