                    TRIBUTE TO PASTOR ANGEL MAESTRE

 Mr. OSSOFF. Mr. President, I rise today to commend Pastor 
Angel Maestre for his impact on Augusta's Hispanic community.
  Pastor Angel Maestre is a beacon of Georgia, serving as the head 
pastor at Oasis Augusta Iglesia for the last 18 years. Over the course 
of his tenure, Pastor Maestre has worked to uplift the community 
through his countless years of mentorship, selfless acts, and service. 
Pastor Maestre has also founded the first Hispanic radio station in 
Augusta to better connect the community and inform residents of news 
impacting their neighborhood. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Pastor 
Maestre helped inform the Hispanic community about vaccinations through 
his show, ensuring the community was well informed and staying healthy.
  As Georgia's U.S. Senator, I commend and recognize Pastor Angel 
Maestre for his dedication to Georgia and the Augusta 
community.
