                 WELCOME TO THE REVEREND JOHN WILLIAMS

  (Mr. BLILEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BLILEY. Mr. Speaker and colleagues, it is a great pleasure this 
morning to join in welcoming my cousin, the pastor of Immaculate 
Conception Church in Clinton, NC, who gave us our invocation today.
  I am also joined by his former parishioner, the gentleman from North 
Carolina [Mr. Jones], and we are both very pleased and proud that 
Father John Williams could be with us today.
  Mr. Speaker, I now yield to my colleague, the gentleman from North 
Carolina [Mr. Jones] for any remarks he may have to add.
  Mr. JONES. I thank the gentleman.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a privilege and a pleasure for me to also welcome 
Father John today, a man that I have great respect for, a man who loves 
his people, loves his country, and loves his Lord.
