                       Tuesday, November 26, 2019

  Mr. DANNY K. DAVIS of Illinois. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor the 
New Zion Missionary Baptist Church, located at 1901 Charlestine Street 
in Texarkana, Texas on their 100th year anniversary. The church was 
organized under the leadership of Rev. Warner Brown. A group of 
believers met in the home of Bro. L. and Sis. Hattie Frazier. Through 
the years several ministers have served, and the church is still moving 
forward. Destroyed by fire in 1954, another building was purchased at 
the present location. We recognize this honorable achievement marking 
the 100th Diamond Jubilee church anniversary, November 24, 2019. We 
recognize Pastor Melvin and Nina Glover; the Chairman of Deacons, 
Deacon George Edwards; the Church Secretary, Sis. Melva Flowers; along 
with the New Zion Church Family. Give God all the glory for what he has 
done and what he will continue to do and provide.
