                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, the giver of every good and perfect gift, we are 
sinful people seeking salvation. We are lost people seeking direction. 
We are doubting people seeking faith. Teach us, O God, the way of 
salvation. Show us the path to meaningful life. Reveal to us the steps 
of faith.
  Today use the Members of this body as instruments of Your glory. 
Quicken their hearts and purify their minds. Broaden their concerns and 
strengthen their commitments. Show them duties left undone. Remind them 
of promises unkept and reveal to them tasks unattended. Lord, lead them 
to a deeper experience with You.
  And, Lord, please comfort the loved ones of Kayla Jean Mueller.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
