      RECOGNIZING SHAVERS CREEK GRANGE NUMBER 353 SESQUICENTENNIAL

  (Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a 
Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, institution, which is celebrating a 
milestone anniversary.
  This year, Shavers Creek Grange Number 353 will mark the 150th 
anniversary of its founding with a series of events, including a 
fellowship event that reflects the organization's mission to embrace 
community members from across generations.
  Defined by its enduring commitment to family values and community 
standards, the Shavers Creek Grange represents the organization's 
motto, and that motto is: ``In essentials, unity; in nonessentials, 
liberty; in all things, charity.''
  On behalf of everyone in Pennsylvania's 13th Congressional District, 
I congratulate the Shavers Creek Grange on this sesquicentennial 
milestone and thank its members for their continued work to strengthen 
the community fabric of Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania.
