                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord God, Creator of all and Savior of those who put their trust in 
You, in this era of post-9/11, we pray that the children of this 
generation and their children's children may never have to experience 
another day like the one that flooded our TV screens yesterday.
  Protect and guide this Nation to a new security built upon human 
integrity and communal solidarity with all who love freedom and human 
dignity while respecting the life and beliefs of others.
  Empower the Members of Congress and governments around the world to 
establish just laws and seek the common good that will lead to ways of 
equity and peace.
  Let our children dream dreams, equip themselves with the best 
education possible and become creative leaders of tomorrow because they 
are aligned with Your will, Your power and give You the glory now and 
forever. Amen.
