                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. GLENN IVEY

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 14, 2023

  Mr. IVEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the services and 
accomplishments of James Hairston III and Trina Hairston, the Lead 
Pastors of All Nations Worship Assembly Washington, D.C.
  Both natives of Bridgeport, Connecticut came to being the Lead 
Pastors in January of 2019 of All Nations Worship Assembly Washington, 
D.C. At the start of launching, they hosted live-streaming Bible Study 
sessions and live worship services called ``Preaching to the Choir'' to 
draw the local community closer to God. Within the last four years, 
they have built a culture of outreach, discipleship, and fellowship for 
the local Prince George's County communities. As Lead Pastors, they 
have purposed in their heart to cultivate the community through love, 
prayer, and teachings of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
  We recognize that Pastors James Hairston III and Trina Hairston as a 
force within the Prince George's County community. Their passion has 
been powerful by spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ through prayer, 
love, outreach, discipleship, and fellowship into the lives of 
underserved and disadvantaged communities. Their commitment to God has 
both led Pastor James Hairston III and Trina Hairston to be great 
faith-based pillar within Prince George's County.
  On behalf of Maryland 4th Congressional District, I ask my colleagues 
to join me in honoring Lead Pastors James Hairston III and Trina 
Hairston for their exemplary accomplishments, dedication to public 
service, and trailblazing leadership.
