HR 1026: dReam Center Church of Atlanta; occasion of its 20th anniversary; recognize

This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring The dReam Center Church of Atlanta, founded in 2005 by Pastor William H. Murphy and Pastor Danielle Murphy. It recounts the church's founding, its first service on Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, and its record of community and humanitarian work over the past 20 years. The resolution does not change any Georgia law. It formally states the House's recognition and best wishes for the church's continued growth, and directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the church.

• Formally recognizes and commends The dReam Center Church of Atlanta on its 20th anniversary.
• States the House's recognition of the church's history, founding in 2005, and community service.
• Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for the church.
• Extends the House's best wishes for the church's continued growth and success; it creates no new legal requirements.

The resolution directly names The dReam Center Church of Atlanta, its pastors William H. Murphy and Danielle Murphy, and its congregation. It also involves the Clerk of the House of Representatives, who must prepare and distribute a copy of the resolution.

This is a symbolic honor rather than a change to Georgia law or policy. Its practical effect is limited to formal recognition by the state legislature and a commemorative copy given to the church, without altering any rights, funding, or obligations for anyone.

• The resolving clause states the House recognizes the church's 20 years of history and service and extends best wishes for its future.
• A further resolution directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make a copy available for distribution to the church.
• The whereas clauses provide background context, including the church's 2005 founding and first service on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, but carry no legal effect.
