                  HONORING THE REVEREND CHARLIE MURRAY

  (Mr. DAVIS of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, on Sunday I had the opportunity 
to participate in a tremendous ceremony, the naming of a dining hall at 
the

church that I attend on a regular basis. We named it the Charlie H. 
Murray, the Reverend Charlie Murray, who is the pastor emeritus of this 
church; and as we thought of the contributions that this gentleman had 
made, we had brought practically every Senator, every mayor, 
Presidential candidates, all to this small church because of the 
tremendous outreach and appeal of the Reverend Charlie Murray.
  So as we go into primary elections and people are voting and thinking 
about electing a new President, we thought that was an appropriate time 
to pay tribute to a church man who had been civically involved.
