                      Tuesday, September 16, 2014

  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Alexander Lapp. Alex is a very special young man who has exemplified 
the finest qualities of citizenship and leadership by taking an active 
part in the Boy Scouts of America, Troop 374, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Alex has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Alex has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Alex has 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Alex 
remodeled a loft at Liberty Christian Fellowship Church in Liberty, 
Missouri, repainting it and adding railings and other safety 
improvements as the church converts the loft from a space for teenage 
youth to a space for children to meet.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Alexander 
Lapp for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
