  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I ask for the House's attention 
today to recognize Pastor Kent and Beverly Mattox and his staff at Word 
Alive International Outreach church in Calhoun County during the 
Freedom Riders celebration in Anniston on May 5, 2018.
  Word Alive International Outreach was founded in December of 2000. 
Pastor Kent and his staff went above and beyond measure to help make 
the celebration a huge success. Their hospitality and service to the 
community was amazing. It is great people like them that make the 
difference in servitude.

  All in all, they made the celebration even more special for all who 
attended.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing and thanking Pastor Kent 
Mattox and the Word Alive staff.
