One Minute Speech Given in Recognition of the Guest Chaplain:
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to introduce the pastor of the Faith Baptist Church of Altoona, Pennsylvania, and the president of the Way of Truth Ministries, Pastor Gary Dull.
Pastor Dull has been preaching the Gospel since he was 12 years old. By the time he was a senior at Washington Bible College, Pastor Dull was already preaching at Morningside Baptist Church in Suitland, Maryland, right outside of Washington, D.C.
Since then, Pastor Dull has had an incredible life. He has served at four churches in Pennsylvania and Florida and is currently in his 29th year as the pastor of the Faith Baptist Church of Altoona.
Pastor Dull also founded the Way of Truth Ministries, which has missionaries on three continents. Pastor Dull has evangelized by preaching the Gospel and serving those in need in 25 different countries.
Pastor Dull has devoted his life to spreading the Word of the Lord and serving those less fortunate. Whether in his community or throughout the world, he has embodied the selfless service of Jesus Christ, his Savior.
It is a privilege to welcome Pastor Gary Dull and his wife of 50 years, Nancy, to Washington to open the floor of the United States House of Representatives in prayer.
Opening Prayer Given by the Guest Chaplain:
Our Heavenly Father and God, we thank You for receiving us through the work of Your son, the Lord Jesus Christ, on the cross. We also thank You for the many blessings You have showered upon this great Nation.
Today, I thank You for those You have brought into this great Chamber to represent the citizens of our country and to advance the American ethic laid firm by the faith of our Founders.
May You guide, direct, enable, and strengthen Speaker Johnson and each Member of this body in the path of unity that will bring lasting peace and prosperity to this Nation we all love.
I pray that, by Your grace, You will enlighten each Representative with Your wisdom that will maintain America as a bastion for peace and freedom around the world for generations to come.
These things, I pray in the name of Your son and our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
