                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, help us. Turn us back to the paths of integrity and 
faith. Be for our lawmakers a protecting rock of safety, rescuing them 
from the powers of evil. Help them to fix their hearts on You, trusting 
Your guidance and wisdom. May love for You be reflected in the ordering 
of their priorities as they seek to give You first place in every 
important decision. Lord, make them servants of Your purposes as they 
seek to increase the treasures of Your Kingdom. Satisfy the deepest 
longings of their hearts.
  And, Lord, in these toxic and cacophonous times, bless America.
  We pray in Your loving Name. Amen.
