A SENATE RESOLUTION
TO CONGRATULATE THE OCONEE COUNTY CHAPLAINS ASSOCIATION UPON THE OCCASION OF ITS FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY AND TO COMMEND THE ORGANIZATION FOR ITS MANY YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE TO THE OCONEE COMMUNITY.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate are pleased to join the Oconee County Chaplains Association in celebrating its fiftieth anniversary in 2019; and
Whereas, established in 1969, the Oconee County Chaplains Association relies on contributions from Oconee County churches in order to provide chaplains to various local hospitals; and
Whereas, on-duty chaplains at hospitals in Oconee County serve individuals who may not otherwise have a pastor or access to one in their time of illness or accident. The chaplains also serve as a helpful presence to hospital staff; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate greatly appreciate the service of the Oconee County Chaplains Association to the people and the State of South Carolina. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate the Oconee County Chaplains Association upon the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary and commend the organization for its many years of dedicated service to the Oconee community.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Oconee County Chaplains Association.
