                       Tuesday, December 5, 2006

  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Mount 
Sinai Missionary Baptist Church for 50 years of service and involvement 
in the Fort Worth Community. Mount Sinai is located in the 26th 
District of Texas.
  Since opening its doors in 1956, Mount Sinai has encouraged the 
ministry, fellowship, and outreach of its members. Under the faithful 
guidance of Bishop B.C. McPherson II, Mount Sinai has flourished as a 
cornerstone of worship in our community.
  The event will be celebrated with a Mass Choir Musical, and a service 
the following day by guest Pastor Carl Woodard. Current and former 
Mount Sinai members and prominent members of the community will be on 
hand to celebrate the anniversary.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to represent this congregation. I 
congratulate the Mount Sinai Missionary Baptist Church as they 
celebrate 50 proud years of commitment to ministry, and look forward to 
many years to come.

                          ____________________
