                  WELCOMING REVEREND JONATHAN FALWELL

  The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. 
Cline) is recognized for 1 minute.
  There was no objection.
  Mr. CLINE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize our guest 
chaplain, the Reverend Jonathan Falwell of Thomas Road Baptist Church 
in Lynchburg, Virginia.
  Reverend Falwell has long been a leader in his community, the 
Commonwealth of Virginia, and the United States. His sermons are 
delivered to thousands each week at Thomas Road, on television, and 
through the internet. Jonathan Falwell followed in the footsteps of his 
father, Dr. Jerry Falwell, as senior pastor of Thomas Road Baptist 
Church.
  Jerry Falwell was founder of Liberty University, one of the largest 
Christian universities in the United States. In addition to his role as 
senior pastor at Thomas Road, Reverend Jonathan Falwell also serves as 
executive vice president of spiritual affairs at Liberty.
  On this National Day of Prayer, I extend my thanks to Jonathan 
Falwell for his devotion to Christ, his family, and his community.
