                WELCOMING THE REVEREND JAMES BRINKERHOFF

  (Mr. ADERHOLT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ADERHOLT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize our guest 
chaplain, Mr. James Sanford Brinkerhoff. Jim has served selflessly as a 
campus minister on the Auburn University campus for 22 years, working 
with the Auburn Church of Christ and Auburn Christian Student Center.
  Auburn University is the largest university in the State of Alabama 
and is therefore a crucial component of Alabama's educational system. 
Jim works very hard to ensure that, in addition to receiving 
outstanding education, Auburn students are exposed to the teachings of 
Jesus.
  Through campus ministry, Jim has impacted the lives of many through 
counseling, teaching, service, and friendship. Students with whom he 
has worked now stretch across the globe with a common affection and 
respect for this man.
  Jim is joined this morning by his wife, Mary, and their three 
children, Amy, Anna and Ben. I appreciate the prayer that Reverend 
Brinkerhoff offered this morning; and the gentleman from Alabama (Mr. 
Rogers), who represents the Third Congressional District, and I are 
honored to have him as our guest in the United States House of 
Representatives, especially on this day as we celebrate the National 
Day of Prayer.
