  Ms. TLAIB. Mr. Speaker, today I want to recognize Bishop Robert 
Delano Taylor, of Glad Tidings Church in Detroit, as he is promoted as 
the Presiding Bishop of Southwest Michigan Agape Ecclesiastical 
Jurisdiction.
  Since 1987, Bishop Taylor has served as the pastor of Glad Tidings 
Church, where he has led his family in faith and spearheaded numerous 
programs in service to the community. He has launched initiatives to 
provide vital resources to children, youth, and families, as well as 
offering essential support to the homeless during winter months, as 
well as providing backpacks, free haircuts, and dental services during 
annual back-to-school rallies.
  In his new role, Bishop Taylor undertakes the monumental task of 
overseeing a vast network of over fifty congregations. In addition to

and guiding the pastors within his jurisdiction, ensuring they are 
equipped with the requisite resources to foster their spiritual, 
emotional, and intellectual growth. His steadfast commitment to the 
betterment of others is evident in every aspect of his leadership.
  The 12th Congressional District offers our congratulations and 
recognition of Bishop Robert Delano Taylor for his spiritual leadership 
and impact on our community.
