                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Eternal light, Who brightens our day, here in America You find a 
nation of compassion. We believe that You will measure us as a free 
society on how we treat the weakest and most vulnerable among us. Each 
day citizens across America answer the universal call to feed the 
hungry, comfort the sick, and care for the infirm.
  May all citizens in this vast pluralistic society strengthen their 
resolve to contribute ever more responsibly to the life of this Nation, 
prove themselves proud of its goodness and generosity, and so reflect 
Your glory now and forever. Amen.
