                       WELCOMING REVEREND CIRONE

  Mr. ALLARD. Mr. President, I take a moment to welcome our Chaplain 
for the day.
  Frank and Krista Cirone, with their four children: Andrew, Benjamin, 
Isaak, and Anikka, live and minister at Ravencrest Chalet of the 
Torchbearer International Missionary Fellowship. Ravencrest Chalet is a 
Bible school and Christian conference center in Estes Park, CO. The 
Cirones enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and snowboarding in the Colorado 
Rockies.
  Frank graduated from Philadelphia Biblical University in 1989 prior 
to joining the staff at Ravencrest Chalet. Frank is pursuing his 
master's degree in leadership from Denver Seminary. At Ravencrest, he 
serves as principal of the Bible school, resident instructor and 
coordinator of the second year leadership program.
  Besides his responsibilities at Ravencrest, Frank spends time 
traveling and speaking at various conferences and retreats both in 
North America and overseas. He very much enjoys motivating people to a 
deeper love for Christ that influences all aspects of daily living 
through dynamic communication and interaction. I want to thank Mr. 
Cirone and his family for
