                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the 
following prayer:
  With the psalmist, let us pray.
  You, O Lord, are our strength, we watch for You. You, O God, are our 
fortress on whom we can rely.
  God, go before the men and women of Ukraine and be the shield and 
defense of their country against their aggressors. In Your might uproot 
their enemies and bring them down.
  For the sins of their mouths, for the words of their lips, let those 
who would slander Ukraine, let them be caught in their pride. For the 
curses and lies they utter, consume them in Your wrath.
  Deliver Ukraine, O God. Save its people from those who conspire 
against them for no offense or sin of their own.

  Arise to help the Ukrainians. Look on their plight. We appeal to You, 
O Lord Almighty, the ruler of all nations.
  In Your sovereign name, we pray.
  Amen.
