  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate JoAnn and Andy Gohlinghorst of Council Bluffs, Iowa, for 
their many years of volunteer services at Christian Home Association--
Children's Square USA in Council Bluffs. JoAnn and Andy started 
volunteering at Children's Square in 1985. JoAnn
  JoAnn and Andy have spent the past 31 years volunteering at 
Children's Square, where they have sorted, organized, and displayed 
donated clothing and toys. These items are available to children in 
need on the Children's Square campus as well as foster families served 
by Children's Square. The Christian Home Association--Children's Square 
USA is a private, not-for profit organization founded on December 23, 
1882. Children's Square USA has a rich history of caring for children 
from birth to 21 years old and their families, meeting their 
individualized needs, instilling hope and helping restore lives.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend JoAnn and Andy for the dedicated service they 
have provided to Children's Square and for their care and concern for 
children in need. I ask that my colleagues in the United States House 
of Representatives join me in congratulating JoAnn and Andy for their 
many years of volunteer service and in wishing them nothing but the 
very best.
