          WELCOMING ARCHBISHOP DONALD WUERL TO WASHINGTON, DC

  (Ms. NORTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. NORTON. Mr. Speaker, I take considerable pleasure in welcoming 
Archbishop Donald Wuerl to Washington and to the archdiocese of 
Washington. Although born in Pittsburgh, where he last served, 
Archbishop Wuerl is very familiar with Washington where he studied at 
our own Catholic University of America. The archbishop follows Cardinal 
Theodore McCarrick, whose humble priestly ways and message of 
inclusiveness made him beloved by people of all religions and 
backgrounds here.
  Archbishop Wuerl will minister both to official Washington and to 
average parishioners in the District and Maryland. The archbishop's 
work in Pittsburgh, however, foreshadows a leader who is first and 
foremost a pastor. We warmly welcome Archbishop Donald Wuerl.
