U.S. Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) nominated Pastor Wheeler for the honor. Its a great honor for me to welcome to the United States Senate today our pastor from Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Jeff Wheeler, who just offered our invocation this morning, said Thune. Id like to express how much Kimberley and I have appreciated the opportunity to worship and to benefit from his ministry and enjoy and are blessed by his teachings each and every week when we are back home in South Dakota. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
