                            JOINT RESOLUTION


 
To designate Sunday, October 9, 1994, as ``National Clergy Appreciation 
                                 Day''.

Whereas members of the clergy enrich our lives on a day to day basis with their 
        faithful support, encouragement, and kindness;
Whereas members of the clergy embody a standard of decency and respect by which 
        we can measure our attitudes and lifestyles;
Whereas members of the clergy exemplify solid moral values and a strong 
        commitment to community service;
Whereas members of the clergy in America are faithful workers who give their 
        lives to the betterment of our lives; and
Whereas it is altogether fitting to set aside a day to honor and recognize those 
        who serve so selflessly: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled,
That Sunday, October 9, 1994, is designated ``National Clergy 
Appreciation Day'', and the President is authorized and requested to 
issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to 
observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
