                          REVEREND SCOTT RAMBO

  (Mr. DELAY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DeLAY. Mr. Speaker, our opening prayer this morning was offered 
by my good friend and pastor of my church, Reverend Scott Rambo.
  Reverend Rambo has ministered to the spiritual needs of many of my 
constituents since 1995, when he became the pastor of the First Baptist 
Church of Sugar Land, Texas.
  Since becoming pastor of the first Baptist Church, Reverend Rambo has 
brought excitement and a sense of mission to our community. His message 
of faith and family has inspired many, as witnessed by the astronomic 
growth of the First Baptist Church of Sugar Land.
  Reverend Rambo is a graduate of the University of South Alabama and 
of the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He started his career 
as the Minister of Evangelism at the Retta Baptist Church in Burleson, 
Texas. He became the youth minister at the Hillcrest Park Baptist 
Church in Arlington, Texas, then moved to Dallas to take the job of 
Associate Youth Minister at the First Baptist Church of Dallas.
  He then left Texas for 3 years, serving as the Associate Pastor of 
the First Baptist Church in Bossier City, Louisiana. But, like all 
Texans, he could not leave Texas, he had to come home, so he returned 
back to Texas and started his current ministry in Sugar Land, Texas.
  Reverend Rambo, in my opinion, is a man that truly has a heart and a 
love

for the Lord, and I want to thank Reverend Rambo for his inspirational 
words today and thank him for the inspirational work that he does in 
Sugar Land, Texas.
  So I want to welcome him to the House, and thank him for all his good 
work.
