                        Thursday, March 22, 2018

  Mr. WEBSTER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize Dr. 
Reynold G. Lemp on the occasion of his 90th birthday.
  At the age of 13, Dr. Lemp preached his first sermon, ``Let Go and 
Let God,'' under the ministry of his grandfather, Rev. William Dunn. 
Before entering college, Dr. Lemp worked for Edison Electric Co. for 
one year while preaching at a mission and a church in Detroit, 
Michigan. Upon graduating from Bob Jones University in 1953, Dr. Lemp 
moved to Winter Garden, Florida and started Calvary Baptist Church on 
June 7, 1953.
  Appointed in 1960, Pastor Lemp serves on the board of Bob Jones 
University. He started Calvary Christian School in 1976. During the 
30th anniversary of Calvary Baptist Church, Dr. Bob Jones, Jr. 
presented Dr. Lemp with a Doctor of Divinity (honoris causa). Dr. Lemp 
retired from ministry in 2003 shortly before the 50th anniversary of 
Calvary Baptist Church. Many lives have been impacted through his 
ministry and that of the church.
  It is my pleasure to recognize Dr. Lemp on this momentous occasion. I 
wish him a very happy 90th birthday and may God continue to bless 
Pastor Lemp and his family.
