  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Kenneth Wells as he 
celebrates 25 years as the pastor for Northview Baptist Church in 
Lewisville. Pastor Kenneth Wells is undoubtedly the pride of the 
Northview Baptist community because of his unrelenting outreach to 
preach joy to so many.
  Pastor Kenneth Wells has been enriching the lives of Lewisville 
community since the first Sunday at Northview Baptist Church in 1981. 
In addition to his church duties as Pastor, Kenneth Wells is an active 
member of the greater Lewisville community. He serves as chaplain for 
the city of Lewisville police and fire departments. He created this 
ministry over 25 years ago with other area pastors. Pastor Kenneth 
Wells, along with his wife Teresa, remain committed to serving their 
community and their church.
  Mr. Speaker, it is with great honor that I stand here today to honor 
Pastor Kenneth Wells in recognition of his devotion and selflessness to 
those around him.
