                     COMMENDING THE GUEST CHAPLAIN

  Mr. WEBB. Mr. President, I rise today to speak about today's guest 
Chaplain, Reverend Marshal Ausberry of Antioch Baptist Church, located 
in Fairfax Station, VA. I am pleased to welcome Dr. Ausberry to the 
U.S. Senate today.
  Dr. Ausberry holds a master of divinity degree from the Samuel DeWitt 
Proctor School of Theology at Virginia Union University and a doctorate 
of ministry degree in preaching at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. 
He and his wife Robyn have been married for nearly 30 years, and have 
three children: Marshal Jr., Rian, and Mycah.
  Antioch Baptist Church was founded in January 1989, and in its 20th 
year continues to bring its mission and ministry to the greater DC 
metro area. Since 1995, Dr. Ausberry has led this vibrant and robust 
congregation, expanding not only their membership, but their outreach 
and community involvement as well.
  Through the dozens of missions and ministries at Antioch, Dr. 
Ausberry has made a profound impact on the lives of many members of not 
only my constituency but those throughout the DC metro area. I am 
certain that he will continue to guide his congregation for many years 
to come, and I look forward to seeing the direction of Antioch Baptist 
Church under his leadership.
  I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. LEAHY. I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call 
be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Udall of New Mexico). Without objection, 
it is so ordered.
