WELCOMING REVEREND DR. GLEN DALE BOHANNON
The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentleman from Texas (Mr.
Culberson) is recognized for 1 minute.
There was no objection.
Mr. CULBERSON. Mr. Speaker, it is a privilege to have with us today
as our guest chaplain, Dr. Glen Dale Bohannon, who now pastors a church
in North Carolina, but who understands clearly the importance of this
great institution that it's our privilege to represent. I think Dr.
Bohannon's prayer was appropriate to strengthen these great
institutions that were created for the sole purpose of protecting our
liberty.
Dr. Bohannon was married to Jo Ann Summers on October 26, 1957, was
saved on February 2, 1959, and became an ordained pastor on November
20, 1960. Dr. Bo is a graduate of Southeast Missouri University and
received his master's of divinity from Midwestern Baptist Theological
Seminary in 1972 and his doctorate of ministry in 1985.
Glen and his wife, Jo Ann, have three children: Lisa, John, and Glen,
Jr. John and his wife, Jody, have three children, Glen and Jo's
grandchildren: Summer, Levi, and Joelle.
Dr. Bohannon has served churches in Missouri, Virginia, and North
Carolina. He retired from full-time pastorate in 1996 after serving at
Central Baptist Church of Richmond, Virginia, for 10\1/2\ years. He
received his intentional interim training from 1996-1997, and has since
served as an intentional interim pastor and as an interim pastor in
several churches in Virginia and North Carolina.
Dr. Bohannon currently serves as the interim senior pastor at College
Acres Baptist Church in Wilmington, North Carolina. He recently
completed an intentional interim at Memorial Baptist Church in
Arlington, Virginia, where my family attends when we're in the D.C.
area. We're honored to have our good friend, Dr. Glen Bohannon, here as
the pastor of the House for the day.
