RECOGNIZING FAIRVIEW MORAVIAN CHURCH
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from
North Carolina (Ms. Foxx) for 5 minutes.
Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Fairview Moravian Church
in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, for hosting its third annual Police
Appreciation Day last Friday. It was my privilege to attend this
inspiring and exciting event in honor of the entire Winston-Salem
police force and their families.
Fairview Moravian Church did an incredible job of bringing together
the community to celebrate the commitment and sacrifices that law
enforcement officers and their families make to protect and serve the
community. Numerous local businesses also participated in the event by
providing a wonderful meal and various door prizes.
I commend Police Chief Catrina Thompson, along with her leadership
team, for the leadership they provide the police force, and I commend
and thank, with all my heart, the Winston-Salem police force and all of
the men and women who make daily sacrifices to keep the community safe.
They are truly a dedicated group of people.
The Fifth District is fortunate to have the congregation of Fairview
Moravian Church devote its time and effort to carry out this tradition
to show the men and women of the police force the support they deserve
every day.
May God continue to bless everyone involved.
