In plain language

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Reverend Dr. David L. Stallion Sr. on the ninth anniversary of his leadership as pastor of Mt. Pilgrim Baptist Church. It describes his work preaching, teaching, counseling, and serving the community through organizations such as the United Way of Chattahoochee Valley. The resolution does not change any Georgia law. It simply states the House's recognition of Reverend Stallion's service and directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare an official copy of the resolution for him.
