WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
recognize Senior Pastor Norman Lee Robinson and First Lady Sister | ||
Pearl Robinson of Mount Olive Baptist Church on the occasion of | ||
the celebration of their birthdays, which is taking place | ||
February 25, 2011; and | ||
WHEREAS, This special occasion will celebrate Reverend | ||
Robinson's 90th birthday and Sister Robinson's 88th birthday; this | ||
devoted couple has been together for more than half a century, and | ||
together they have raised three lovely daughters; and | ||
WHEREAS, Reverend Robinson came to Mount Olive Baptist | ||
Church in October of 1966; thanks to his inspiration and | ||
leadership, the church has grown from fewer than two dozen | ||
members to a congregation of more than 10,000 worshippers with | ||
some 35 ministers and more than 100 deacons; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through the years, Sister Robinson has provided | ||
support, strength, and wisdom to her husband, living her faith in her | ||
daily life as she set a sterling example for others to follow; and | ||
WHEREAS, Reverend and Sister Robinson have had a profound | ||
effect on the lives of countless people, and it is truly fitting | ||
that their many contributions to their church and community be | ||
honored; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd | ||
Legislature, hereby commend Senior Pastor Norman Lee Robinson | ||
and First Lady Sister Pearl Robinson on their dedication to faith | ||
and family and extend to them best wishes for a memorable | ||
birthday celebration; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
this distinguished couple as an expression of high regard from | ||
the Texas Senate. | ||
