                  A WARM WELCOME TO OUR GUEST CHAPLAIN

  (Mrs. SCHROEDER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. SCHROEDER. Mr. Speaker, I take the well with great pride, 
because the visiting chaplain today, Dr. Clyde Miller, is from my 
church in Denver, CO. In fact, I am a member of his flock. For those of 
you who wondered if there was anyone who would claim me, yes, and I 
must say how very, very proud I am. I am going to put his resume in the 
Record at this time, because he has a very, very long history of doing 
things, not only preaching but practicing. And I think what he said are 
all things he has practiced very hard and very diligently all his life 
and has been a great role model for how we do that. But basically one 
of the reasons that I have always enjoyed so much listening to Reverend 
Miller is the fact that he has a Barbara Jordanesque voice, that 
through all the clutter and noise, and through all of the conflicting 
things that pull and tug at us, his voice is able to pierce right 
through that and touch the souls of people who really need to be 
touched.
  I think that is truly a gift, and a gift that he has used and 
utilized well, and I thank him very, very much for being with us to 
launch this second session of the Congress.
  I include for the Record Dr. Miller's resume.

                                    Rev. Clyde H. Miller, Jr.,

                                       Denver, CO, March 30, 1995.
       Rev. Clyde H. Miller, Jr. retired as Conference Minister of 
     the Rocky Mountain Conference, United Church of Christ, in 
     1993 where he had served since 1980. During his service he 
     was responsible for the mission, education, and outdoor 
     ministries. Serving as a pastor to pastors and to the 90+ 
     congregations in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming, he was 
     responsible for helping pastors and congregations in the 
     placement process, resolving conflicts, and planning mission 
     and outreach strategies.
       Prior to this position he was the Executive Director of the 
     Boston City Missionary Society for eleven years. At CMS he 
     was the executive for the century-old United Church of Christ 
     institution organized to be an advocate for inner-city poor. 
     In addition to supervising a staff of twenty persons, he was 
     responsible for development.
       Earlier he had worked for the National Catholic Conference 
     for Interracial Justice in Chicago, Illinois. He also served 
     as the Christian Education Executive for the Church 
     Federation of Greater Chicago.
       His first position following his graduation from the 
     Chicago Theological Seminary and his ordination in 1958, was 
     an Assistant Pastor of the Church of the Good Shepherd, 
     Congregational for six years.
       A graduate of Talladega College, he has served as adjunct 
     faculty member at Wesleyan(CT) University, Boston College, 
     and Colorado College.
       A native of Middlesboro, KY, he is married, has two 
     daughters and two grandchildren.
       Mr. Miller is concluding this month a one-year stint as an
