                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Lord, the source of blessings, bless our world. Bless our 
friends and give them abundant living. Bless our enemies and help us to 
transform them into friends. Bless those in harm's way fighting for 
freedom. Bless those in pain of body, mind or spirit. Bless those who 
mourn. Bless those in life's evening who feel left alone. Bless those 
in trouble and are fearful about tomorrow.
  Bless our Senators. Use them for Your glory. Remove the worries that 
distract them and give them Your peace.
  We pray in Your holy Name. Amen.
