                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Eternal God, yet ever-present to Your believing people, give us the 
wisdom to use the time You give us wisely.
  May we divide our time according to priorities, always in fair and 
appropriate ways.
  May we share our time with those who bring out the best in us or need 
our attention the most.
  And Lord, may we waste time only while reflecting on Your many 
blessings or with those we love.
  For everything and everyone is such a gift. Amen.
