The resolution highlights the organization's achievements, including its recognition with the 2024 Governor's Texas Award for Performance Excellence, which acknowledges its exemplary business practices and commitment to quality service. Methodist Healthcare Ministries has made significant contributions to the health and well-being of countless individuals in the region, and the resolution expresses the Texas House of Representatives' best wishes for the organization's future endeavors.
