                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, the source of every good and perfect gift, we thank You 
for the opportunity on yesterday to reflect on how to strive for a more 
perfect Union.
  On an ominous anniversary, You provided us time to meditate on the 
question, Where do we go from here, chaos or community? Lord, grant 
that the searching of our hearts will lead our lawmakers toward greater 
unity and cooperation, enabling them to find creative strategies to 
keep our Nation strong.
  We pray in Your mighty Name. Amen.
