                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the 
following prayer:
  Author of all creation, speak to our lives, for Your word gives life.
  Speak to us in ways that we can hear and understand, that we would 
receive the treasure You have in store for us.
  We stand in awe of the riches You lay before us, a wealth of mercy, a 
bounty of grace, the reward of Your peace.
  Nothing can defeat us. Powers and princes do not compare to You. No 
challenge or pitfall can cause those who love Your law to stumble.
  All our ways are known to You. All that we are and hope to be lies 
open before You.
  May we follow Your precepts and rejoice in Your promises. For in You, 
O Lord, we have our hope. In You is found our salvation.
  In praise of Your name we offer our prayers.
  Amen.
