                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord God, Father of us all, we thank You for giving us another day.
  We are asking again that You look with kindness and compassion upon 
Your people. Americans throughout the Nation struggle with a life-
threatening pandemic while seeking for a return to some normalcy. The 
economy struggles still for a balance that sustains, and even the 
education of our children is hampered by the chaos that COVID-19 has 
brought to the world. Lord, have mercy.
  Continue to bless those who labor to attend to the sick among our 
citizens, and those also who strive to find effective treatments and 
vaccines. Keep us all safe in Your divine mercy.
  May all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
