  Mr. OLSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the reopening of 
New Hope Presbyterian Church in Katy, Texas.
  During Hurricane Harvey, the New Hope Presbyterian Church sustained 
over $1.5 million in flood damage. The reopening of the church 
coincided with its 40 year anniversary. Pastor Long and the 100 person 
congregation have dedicated their church's outreach efforts on ways 
they can help and serve their community while growing in their faith. 
The church also serves as the home to the Houston Korean Community 
Church and a food pantry for the local community.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations to New Hope Presbyterian Church on their new facilities 
and 40th anniversary. Thank them again for bringing faith, fellowship 
and service to our community; we look forward to another 40 years.
