                      THANKING THE GUEST CHAPLAIN

  Ms. STABENOW. Mr. President, I take a special moment to say thank you 
to Rev. Tim Tuthill for giving the invocation today. As a lifelong 
United Methodist, I am very proud of him.
  He is associate pastor of the First United Methodist Church in Mason, 
MI, and one of our brightest and most engaging young leaders in the 
community. I am so pleased he is here today.
  He has been very active in the mid-Michigan community and served in a 
number of different leadership positions in the Mason area United Way, 
the Mason Ministerial Association, the Wesley Foundation, the St. 
Francis Retreat Center, the West Michigan Conference Leadership Team, 
and a host of other organizations.
  After 8 years with the First United Methodist Church, Reverend 
Tuthill was recently appointed by the Wesley Foundation to lead the 
campus ministry at Michigan State, my alma mater, as well as Lansing 
Community College.
  I wish him and his family well. We are so pleased he would take time 
to join us. We appreciate his words of inspiration this morning.
