Jim Brinkerhoff leads U.S. Congress in Prayer

Below is the amalgamation of two emails I recently received:

I wanted to let everyone know that Jim Brinkerhoff will have the honor of opening the United States Congress in prayer on Thursday, May 5 - which also happens to be the National Day of Prayer. This is a big honor and I know everyone will want to watch him live on C-Span. Congress opens every day that they are in session with a prayer - usually by the House Chaplain. Jim will be the guest Chaplain for the day and will have his picture made with the Speaker of the House. Congressman Aderholt will introduce Jim after the prayer.
The current plan for Thursday morning is that the House will go into session at 10:00 am Eastern time. The prayer is the first thing. Following the prayer will be the Pledge of Allegiance and then they will begin one minutes. That is when Congressman Aderholt will introduce Jim. Hope everyone will watch!

As many of you know, Jim B. is one of my fathers in the faith and a dear friend to me. If you can't be near a TV, you can watch C-Span live online at http://www.c-span.org/watch/. Remember its 9am central.
