Small chruch seeks help from large church; big church's pastor says, 'Be warm and filled'
By DAVID EPPS
Pastor

Congressman

A critical responsibility of any member of Congress is to listen to constituents — to listen, to hear, and to reflect their views in Congress. I take this responsibility seriously.

Thank you Mr. Tennant for being the people's councilman.
