                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord, so blessed are we in the United States of America that when we 
hear Your words of blessing upon Abram, the great man of faith, we hear 
those words as spoken to the very soul of this Nation.
  ``I will make of you a great Nation, and I will bless you. I will 
make your name great so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those 
who bless you and curse those who curse you. All the communities of the 
Earth shall find blessing in you.''
  And the people said: Amen.
