WELCOMING REVEREND DON WILLIAMS
The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentleman from Maine (Mr.
Michaud) is recognized for 1 minute.
There was no objection.
Mr. MICHAUD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to welcome Chaplain Donald
Williams as today's guest chaplain.
Chaplain Williams is originally from Springfield, Missouri, but he
came to Maine in 1985, where he served as pastor of the Fellowship
Baptist Church.
Chaplain Williams was sworn in as deputy sheriff and chaplain for the
Kennebec County Sheriff's Office in 1987. In addition to serving as
chaplain for the Maine State Police and Augusta Police Department, he
is involved with the Maine Law Enforcement Chaplain Corps and the
State's Criminal Justice Academy.
Chaplain Williams has gone above and beyond in serving the spiritual
needs of Maine's police force for over 20 years. His remarkable service
was reflected in his nomination for the 2010 National Sheriff's
Association Chaplain of the Year award.
He is a true asset to our State and our country. I am proud to stand
with him here today.
