     HONORING REV. BOBBY JOHNSON, FIRST ASSEMBLY OF GOD, VAN BUREN

  (Mr. BOOZMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BOOZMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Pastor Bobby L. 
Johnson for 30 years of leadership at Van Buren's First Assembly of 
God.
  Under Pastor Johnson's guidance, First Assembly of God has enjoyed 
much success, and it continues to reach new heights. From revivals and 
youth camps to ministers' retreats and mission crusades, Pastor 
Johnson's message resonates with community members, both young and old. 
Its Sunday school program, which started with 270 students, now has 
more than 2,000 students. In addition, its campus houses a retirement 
center, which enables it to reach more seniors.
  Pastor Johnson has served in the ministry for many years and has 
touched the lives of countless individuals, including myself. In 
addition to being pastor at First Assembly of God, Pastor Johnson 
serves as a General Presbyter of the Assemblies of God. Prior to 
joining the First Assembly of God, Van Buren, he served as the Arkansas 
District Assemblies of God Youth Director.
  Mr. Speaker, Pastor Johnson's dedication to spreading the gospel is 
unparalleled; his leadership is unsurpassed. I ask that my colleagues 
recognized Pastor Johnson for his commitment and service to the 
ministry and continued success.
