WELCOMING THE GUEST CHAPLAIN
Mr. REED. Mr. President, may I say how proud I am of Bishop Wolf, not
only for her prayer but for her extraordinary service to the people of
the Rhode Island diocese. Bishop Wolf is a remarkable person, a
remarkable pastor but also a remarkable individual. Unlike many people
who would be content with the trappings of their ecclesiastical office,
she actually has lived with the homeless in New York, Rhode Island, and
Philadelphia. She endured what they endured, she saw their suffering.
She bore witness to their suffering not only in her experiences but her
work in Rhode Island. She is a remarkable woman who leads by example
literally and constantly reminds us of our obligations not just to
ourselves but to our neighbors. We are very proud to have her as our
Episcopal bishop.
I yield the floor.
