                         HON. JERRY F. COSTELLO

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, March 24, 1995
  Mr. COSTELLO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Peace 
Lutheran Church in Steeleville, IL. On August 9, 1996, the church will 
celebrate its 100th anniversary.
  I would like to congratulate the Peace Lutheran Church and its 
pastor, Rev. Dr. James R. Little, on this momentous occasion. The 
community of Steeleville has greatly benefited from their inspirational 
efforts.
  The church has been diligent in its commitment to the work of the 
Lord, and the good news gospel. Peace Lutheran Church works for the 
good of the community by servicing its congregation as a member of the 
southern conference affiliated with the central Illinois senate of the 
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
  I ask my colleagues to join me as I acknowledge Peace Lutheran Church 
on their 100th anniversary and for their selfless dedication to their 
community.
