                    WELCOMING REVEREND DON WILLIAMS

  The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentleman from Maine (Mr. 
Michaud) is recognized for 1 minute.
  There was no objection.
  Mr. MICHAUD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to welcome Chaplain Donald 
Williams as today's guest chaplain.
  Chaplain Williams is originally from Springfield, Missouri, but he 
came to Maine in 1985, where he served as pastor of the Fellowship 
Baptist Church.
  Chaplain Williams was sworn in as deputy sheriff and chaplain for the 
Kennebec County Sheriff's Office in 1987. In addition to serving as 
chaplain for the Maine State Police and Augusta Police Department, he 
is involved with the Maine Law Enforcement Chaplain Corps and the 
State's Criminal Justice Academy.
  Chaplain Williams has gone above and beyond in serving the spiritual 
needs of Maine's police force for over 20 years. His remarkable service 
was reflected in his nomination for the 2010 National Sheriff's 
Association Chaplain of the Year award.
  He is a true asset to our State and our country. I am proud to stand 
with him here today.
