HR1615: HR1615 Badu, Dr. Sonnie and First Lady Annie; eight remarkable years of ministry service in the State of Georgia; commend

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to any law. It recognizes Dr. Sonnie Badu and First Lady Annie Badu for eight years of ministry work in Georgia through their leadership at RockHill Church Atlanta, citing their worship services, humanitarian outreach, leadership conferences, and mentorship programs. The resolution states that the House commends the couple's dedication and spiritual leadership and recognizes their ministry as contributing to faith and community life in Georgia. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for presentation to Dr. Sonnie Badu and First Lady Annie Badu. It does not create any new rule, funding, or legal requirement.

• Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute an official copy of the resolution to the couple.
• Creates no new law, funding, or regulatory requirement, since it is a ceremonial resolution rather than a bill amending Georgia code.
