                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the 
following prayer:
  Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens, Your faithfulness to the 
skies. Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, Your justice 
like the great deep.
  Give us eyes of faith that we may look to the heavens and know Your 
love, hearts that we may enjoy Your faithfulness. Grant us strength 
that we would climb the highest mountain to learn of Your 
righteousness, courage that we would plunge the great deep to exercise 
Your justice.
  How priceless is Your unfailing love, O God. People take refuge in 
the shadow of Your wings. They feast on the abundance of Your house; 
You give them drink from the river of delights.
  Holy Lord, even as You provide shelter and food and drink for us this 
day, may we serve to be the extension of Your wings of refuge. May we 
share the bounty of our own larders and give water to those who thirst 
for the refreshment of Your own living water.
  For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.
  Hear our prayer this day that we may reflect the light of Your sacred 
name.
  Amen.
