WELCOMING REVEREND DR. ANDREW CHANEY
The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentleman from Missouri (Mr.
Long) is recognized for 1 minute.
There was no objection.
Mr. LONG. Mr. Speaker, today I have the honor of introducing my
friend, the Reverend Dr. Andrew Chaney, along with his wife, Christine,
and my wife, Barbara, in the gallery, and the Hargis family from
Springfield, Missouri, members of the First and Calvary Church.
Reverend Chaney is a third-generation minister. Reverend Chaney
serves as the senior minister at the historic First and Calvary
Presbyterian Church in Springfield, Missouri, a church that is a very
special place for my family. Reverend Chaney serves as an important
spiritual voice for us and the Springfield community.
Congress has a longstanding tradition of beginning each day in
prayer. I am privileged and honored to have the opportunity to welcome
Reverend Dr. Andrew Chaney to the people's House as he opened today's
session in prayer.
