                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, You are the Author and Finisher of all things. Your 
authority is from the beginning and remains to the ending.
  Today, inspire our lawmakers to do Your will. Make their minds 
sensitive to Your truth and their hearts willing to obey Your commands. 
Lord, give them the liberty of Your wisdom so that they will embrace 
the fullness of life You desire for us all.
  God of mercy and truth, we are pilgrims in this world. Through the 
saving power of Your redeeming love, empower us to live for Your glory.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
