                      WELCOMING THE GUEST CHAPLAIN

  Mr. NELSON of Florida. Mr. President, it has been some time, with 
great anticipation and joy, that I have extended an invitation for Rev. 
Willie C. Barnes of Eatonville, FL, to come and be with us as the guest 
Chaplain for the day. Reverend Barnes's church in the historically 
Black town of Eatonville is a very large church. It is a church that 
ministers to the entire Orlando metropolitan area. They do it not only 
with the excellence and the soaring oratory of Reverend Barnes himself 
but with an outreach to the community, with projects to help the least 
of these, our brothers and sisters.
  It is with great appreciation and humility that I recognize the 
accomplishments of that church and am so glad to have its pastor, a man 
who, with a twinkle in my eye, I call my pastor, come and be with us 
here in our Senate family today.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The majority leader.
