                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  We praise You, Lord, for You have rescued us. You refuse to permit 
our enemies to win. Help us to so live that the generations to come 
will know of Your mighty acts.
  Today, give our lawmakers the singularity of heart to seek, find, and 
follow Your will so that their legacy will be exemplary. Guide them in 
the path You have created, inspiring them with the potency of Your 
powerful presence. May they trust You in times of adversity and 
prosperity, knowing that they will reap a productive harvest if they 
persevere.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
