    HONORING THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF CHRIST CATHEDRAL BAPTIST CHURCH

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. RASHIDA TLAIB

                       Tuesday, October 29, 2019

  Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, I rise today in tribute to Christ Cathedral 
Baptist Church, a house of worship located in Detroit, Michigan, on the 
occasion of its twenty-fifth anniversary.
   The members of Christ Cathedral Baptist Church first came together 
to worship in 1994. The congregation grew so quickly in its first year 
that they were forced to find a new worship space before settling at 
its current address on Hartford Street. No matter what location, the 
congregation was home wherever they could gather together for worship. 
It is evident in their mutual support for one another and commitment to 
serving the community's most vulnerable that the flock at Christ 
Cathedral Baptist Church is a family. For more than twenty years, the 
church has given back to the community by hosting meal services for 
those in need and ministering to people struggling with substance 
abuse. In short, the flock at Christ Cathedral has drawn strength from 
each other as they have come together to worship and celebrate, and 
they have used their strength in service to others.
   Please join me in recognizing Christ Cathedral Baptist Church on 
this milestone as we wish them many more years of service to come.
