                     WELCOMING MONSIGNOR JOHN ZENZ

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the gentleman from 
Michigan (Mr. Trott) is recognized for 1 minute.
  There was no objection.
  Mr. TROTT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the contributions 
of Monsignor Zenz, a staple in southeast Michigan and the pastor of 
Holy Name Catholic Church.
  Ordained almost 40 years ago, Monsignor Zenz received a doctorate in 
spiritual theology in 1984 and has served the faculty at Sacred Heart 
for over 35 years.
  Starting as a weekend associate at my hometown parish in Birmingham, 
Michigan, Monsignor Zenz became the pastor at Holy Name in 2008, where 
he has faithfully served our community since.
  He also serves on the board at the Academy of the Sacred Heart and 
chaplain to the Detroit Chapter of the National Christ Child Society. 
He is currently a chaplain to the Detroit Cardinal Club and has 
extensive experience working with Catholic Network of Detroit, ensuring 
God's word reaches as many homes as possible.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to host Monsignor Zenz here today, and I 
want to thank him for his tireless service and dedication to southeast 
Michigan. We should all strive to serve our communities with the same 
rigor that Monsignor Zenz demonstrates on a daily basis.
