Mr Jerry Ranson, Mayor of Greenville, Texas, USA
at the 25th Annual Convention of RCCG, The Americas
Day 3
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT PEACE, HOLINESS AND PARENTAL REVERENCE ARE THE PILLARS OF YOUR BELIEF.
- It is impressive that your Services are broadcast to a worldwide audience
Your music has filled my spirit tonight. Thank you. It is a big honour for me to be here and welcome you to Greenville Fort Worth county. I understand this is your 25th anniversary. I remember I have lived here for 50 years, I remember when you first came here 25 years ago. I think it is also impressive to tell me that your Services are broadcast to a worldwide audience: I think that is wonderful.
On a personal note, I want to say it is a honour for me to be here in the presence of such a significant congregation of believers in the Bible, that is important to me that man was formed from God’s image and that peace, holiness and parental reverence are the pillars of your belief. I think unfortunately the America that I know has lost its focus. I hope and pray that someday, perhaps I hope with your help, we will be able to re-focus and reconnect on our path. Church Gist. Thank you, we hope we can have your help.
I want to tell you just a little bit about Grenville this morning. Greenville is one of the fastest growing cities in Dallas. It offers the conveniences of a big city alongside the small town atmosphere that we in east Texas have come to treasure. Our growing attracts business communities and major defense contractors, I am sure you have seen the air space industry leaders…(L3 Mission Integration Division) which employ about 7,000 people there, on the south east side of the city. We have global specialty in chemicals and materials companies and major oil fields service equipment manufacture. In addition to that, we have a growing crew of small businesses with an entrepreneurial spirit that is adding to our local economy. Our skill district boasts a world championship robotic team and programmes such as Destination Imagination, Suzuki…to develop our children’s interest in Maths, Science and the Arts. We pride ourselves in providing quality local park system as was mentioned including Greenville Sports Park which you might have been to and activities that keep our young people engaged.
Greenville Restaurants and retail shops cater to the vast interest and host numerous community events through out the year. The revaluation of our downtown, if you have been to downtown has Greenville rich history. We have a very rich history downtown. The Texas theatre and our very own Greenville Municipal Auditorium bring entertainment to our doorsteps by regularly featuring accomplished musical artistes through Greenville concert series, Greenville entertainment series and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. The Dallas Symphony Orchestra comes here. We are the only city in the metroplex that they visit 6 times a year outside their normal performing area. We are very proud of that, thank you.
Again I want to say welcome to Greenville Texas. During your stay, I hope you will take the opportunity to experience some of the things that our families and businesses have already discovered about our warm and friendly community. I invite you to join us as we continue to grow and I hope you will grow with us. Our rich heritage and vibrant future.
On your 25th anniversary, here is wishing you the most uplifting in your Convention ever. Thank you again for visiting our Community, please I will like you to contact me through the city if there is anything I can do to help you.
Welcome to Greenville and may God bless you and yours.
You have lifted my spirit tonight. This has been very interesting to me and I want to thank you very much.
Thank you for being in Greenville. Thank You, welcome!
