                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord God faithful through the ages, You take delight in Your people, 
even when we are distracted from lasting purpose or impatient because 
there is no immediate results from our determined actions.
  Give us the wisdom to accomplish great deeds because we are drawn 
closer to Your designs for this Nation and our place in the globalized 
world.
  Strengthen us lest we become tired. Further us in our search to 
deepen the commitment of serious study and hard work until we find 
security and justice for Your people, especially those in most need.
  May Your kingdom come, Your will be done through our humble efforts, 
both now and forever.
  Amen.
