                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Let us approach the Lord with praise and thanksgiving. Strong is His 
love for us. Left to ourselves, we are easily overwhelmed. We cannot be 
attentive to His Word or accomplish His holy will.
  So shield us with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and make this Congress bold 
and strong. As Your instrument of mercy and compassion, drive away all 
that is evil and reveal the path that will strengthen Your people in 
hope and salvation, and give You the glory both now and forever. Amen.
