The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the gentleman from Maine
is recognized for one minute.
There was no objection.
Mr. MICHAUD. Madam Speaker, I rise today to welcome and recognize Ms.
Jeri Brooks Greenwell as today's guest chaplain. Ms. Greenwell is from
Bethel, Maine, and is a member of the West Paris Congregational Church.
She's also the National Chaplain of the American Legion Auxiliary.
Ms. Greenwell has dedicated much of her adult life in community
service. She has been an active member of the Legion Auxiliary since
1974, holding numerous positions. Her service extends deep into her
community. Ms. Greenwell is a life member of the Bethel Historical
Society, a former Literacy Volunteer, a member of the Maine's Children
Alliance, a member of the Maine Handicapped Skiing Veterans Program,
and a National spokesperson for the National Meningitis Association.
Ms. Greenwell is joined by other members of the American Legion. I
would like to welcome them as well. I am proud that Ms. Greenwell is my
constituent, and it is an honor to have her deliver today's prayer.
