CELEBRATING BONITA SHELBY
(Ms. TLAIB asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Ms. TLAIB. Mr. Speaker, today, I want to celebrate the 60th birthday
of Lady Bonita Shelby, a community leader in Michigan's 12th District.
Lady Shelby is a leader of the Burning Bush International Ministries,
along with her husband, Bishop Don Shelby, Jr.
As the leader of Burning Bush's Flare Women's ministry, she has
spearheaded the Good Days women's weekend of events to serve the
incredible women in our district.
She is also a mother, author, public servant, and mentor figure to so
many in our community. In addition to their ministry at home in
Westland, she and her husband travel all around the country to provide
services for underserved communities and pray with families in need.
Mr. Speaker, I thank Lady Bonita Shelby for her commitment to serving
our communities. Please join me in wishing her a happy 60th birthday
and a meaningful year ahead.
