  Ms. TLAIB. Mr. Speaker, today, the 12th Congressional District honors 
Bishop Tony Shomari Marshall and the House of Prayer Institutional 
Church in Detroit, Michigan, as they celebrate 25 years of ministry and 
public service.
  Bishop Marshall, the founding pastor, is a revered preacher, 
educator, chaplain, and author who has dedicated his life to serving 
people in need. A committed ``teaching priest,'' he has studied under 
numerous scholars and earned degrees and certificates from respected 
institutions, including Taylor University, Trinity Evangelical Divinity 
School, Trinity International University, Andersonville Theological 
Seminary, and Ecumenical Theological Seminary.
  Consecrated to the office of Bishop in 2021, he now serves on the 
Board of Bishops with the Deliverance Tabernacle Fellowship of 
Ministries. For 25 years, his church has uplifted Detroit through 
worship, education, service, and love. I congratulate Bishop Tony 
Shomari Marshall and the House of Prayer Institutional Church on this 
extraordinary milestone.
