                   ACCOLADES TO REVEREND T.F. TENNEY

 Mr. VITTER. Mr. President, I thank the Reverend T.F. Tenney 
for more than 25 years of guidance, service and leadership throughout 
the great state of Louisiana.
  I recognize Reverend T.F. Tenney, United Pentecostal Church District 
Superintendent for the State of Louisiana. Reverend Tenney retired on 
March 31, 2005, after 26 years of service in central Louisiana and 
throughout the state. More than 4,000 people came to offer heartfelt 
appreciation and best wishes at his retirement ceremony.
  Through his role as district superintendent, he was responsible for 
overseeing all of Louisiana's United Pentecostal Churches. During his 
26 years of service, he created a level of stability in the church and 
brought the United Pentecostal Church to a new level. His 
professionalism and guidance in handling Louisiana's churches and their 
congregations will be missed, as well as his great wisdom and 
leadership.
  I personally commend, honor and thank Reverend Tenney on the occasion 
of his retirement from service to the people of Louisiana after 26 
years as United Pentecostal Church District Superintendent for the 
State of Louisiana.
