                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  God of love and mercy, thank You for giving us another day.
  Look toward us, O God, and have pity on us, for we are much 
afflicted. Preserve our lives, and rescue us. Let us not be put to 
shame, for we take refuge in You.
  These are such troubling times, with Americans on all sides striving 
for a great reckoning and readjustment of our norms and habits of 
society. It is frightening for many; painful for all.
  For our leaders, local and national, enlighten them with the wisdom 
and courage to address injustice where it resides.
  Comfort Your people and help us all to grow in faith, hope, and love.
  Bless us all this day and every day, and may all that we do and can 
do for our neighbors be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
