                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, to You all hearts are open, all desires known, and from 
You, no secrets are hid. Strengthen all who put their trust in You.
  Empower our lawmakers to glorify You by following your precepts. May 
they please You both in their desires and deeds. Lord, grant that the 
words they speak and the thoughts they think will be acceptable to You 
as You pour upon them the abundance of Your mercies.
  Prosper Your providence through their efforts, according to Your holy 
will.
  And, Lord, we continue to intercede for Ukraine.
  We pray in Your mighty Name. Amen.
