                         Monday, April 23, 2007

  Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas. Madam Speaker, it is my privilege to bring 
before this Congress the following outstanding people who have 
voluntarily served orphans, public school children, college students, 
juvenile delinquents, and needy families under the official invitation 
and authority of government agencies in Russia, Mongolia, Romania, 
Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Peru, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, 
Malaysia, Philippines and China. The excellent character demonstrated 
by these people, as well as their commitment to the principles upon 
which our nation was founded, have not only attracted the attention of 
leaders, parents, the media, and students, but it has also brought 
honor to the United States of America and to the Lord Jesus Christ whom 
they serve.
