                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 6, 2019

  Mr. TRONE. Madam Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize Reverend Kenneth Nelson, a Senior Pastor of the Seneca 
Community Church. For over a decade, Reverend Nelson has helped his 
church foster a vibrant and robust community. His passion and 
leadership have had a resounding impact on the people of Maryland.
  Throughout his time with the church, Reverend Nelson has gone to 
great lengths to meet the hunger, health, and job development needs of 
his community. As Montgomery College's Director of Business and 
Community Outreach for the Department of Workforce Development and 
Continuing Education, Reverend Nelson offers academic and career advice 
to community members. Among his many other roles, Reverend Nelson has 
also lent his expertise to the International Council of Community 
Churches Ministers Group and the Montgomery County Black Minister's 
Conference as a Ministerium President and an Officer respectively.
  Over the years, Reverend Nelson's work has received broad 
recognition. Notably, in 2007 and 2010, he was program presenter for 
annual Montgomery County's Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration. He 
is one of the 2018 Montgomery County Human Rights Hall of Fame 
Inductees.
  On behalf of the great state of Maryland, I thank Reverend Nelson for 
his dedicated service and wish him the best in all of his future 
endeavors
