  Mr. VAN DREW. Madam Speaker, recently, I had the pleasure of meeting 
Minnie Callender. Minnie was raised in South Carolina with her eleven 
siblings. She later moved to New York to pursue her college education 
and earned two Master's degrees in education and school administration. 
While also raising four children, she worked as an excellent English 
teacher and school principal. Minnie now volunteers in Middle Township 
as the Chair of the Township's Senior Citizen Advisory Council, where 
she spearheaded a plan for voter education seminars to assist seniors 
and other residents. She also stays active in the local chapter of the 
AARP and her congregation, Christ Gospel Church, where she leads a 
weekly bible study. God Bless Minnie and God Bless America.
