                     WELCOMING REVEREND ROD CANNON

  The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentleman from Florida (Mr. 
Rooney) is recognized for 1 minute.
  There was no objection.
  Mr. ROONEY of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
Reverend Rod Cannon of Zolfo Springs, Florida.
  This afternoon, Reverend Cannon offered the opening prayer as the 
guest chaplain for the House of Representatives. I would like to thank 
Reverend Cannon for traveling to Washington for this honor and House 
Chaplain Father Conroy for providing this opportunity to a pastor from 
the 17th District of Florida.
  Reverend Rod Cannon is the senior pastor at New Vision Worship Center 
in Zolfo Springs, Florida. He comes from a family devoted to the Church 
of God, where both his father and his son have been influential pastors 
in that community.
  Reverend Cannon has been a leader in his church and the Zolfo Springs 
community since he arrived at the New Vision Worship Center in 2009. He 
has offered prayers across the State of Florida, and I am happy that he 
can add the House of Representatives to his extensive ministry.
  I commend Reverend Cannon's commitment to his ministry and wish to 
thank him for offering the opening prayer today. It was my honor to 
invite him to Washington as guest chaplain.
