                     WELCOMING PASTOR CLARK JOHNSON

  The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentlewoman from Kansas (Ms. 
Jenkins) is recognized for 1 minute.
  There was no objection.
  (Ms. JENKINS asked and was given permission to revise and extend her 
remarks.)
  Ms. JENKINS. Mr. Speaker, I am so pleased this morning to welcome a 
fellow Kansan to the halls of Congress. Pastor Clark Johnson is here 
today serving as Guest Chaplain to the House of Representatives, and I 
have to say it was a nice start to the day with a prayer infused with a 
little Kansas spirit.
  Pastor Johnson joined the Topeka community in 1989 when he accepted 
the call to become senior pastor of the First Southern Baptist Church 
in Topeka, and over the last 20 years, Pastor Johnson has built a true 
family at his church with members steadfastly working together for the 
greater glory of Our Lord and Savior.
  Kansas and Topeka are so blessed to have Pastor Johnson in our 
community, and the House is especially blessed to have Pastor Johnson 
with us today. I want to thank him for his service, and wish him well 
for many years to come.
