                                 ______
                                 

                      HON. NICHOLAS A. LANGWORTHY

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 27, 2025

  Mr. LANGWORTHY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the steadfast 
service and profound impact of Cheryl Calire, Director of Life 
Ministries for the Diocese of Buffalo. For 15 years, Cheryl provided 
guidance, leadership and service to the community as a strong voice and 
advocate for women, mothers and children--including the unborn. Since 
her announced retirement last year, she has continued to oversee the 
Saint Gianna Molla Pregnancy Outreach Centers and Mother Teresa Home in 
Western New York.
  The Saint Gianna Molla Pregnancy Outreach Centers have a tangible 
impact on our community, providing important material, emotional, and 
spiritual support during and after pregnancy. This life-affirming work 
has saved lives, eased the transition into motherhood, and directly 
impacted over 1,500 families each year. Cheryl's continued leadership 
has improved the lives and wellbeing of countless children, mothers and 
fathers across Western New York, and I am so grateful for her good 
work.
  Life is a blessing, and as Cheryl Calire transitions into retirement, 
my family and I are so grateful to have witnessed her passion and 
dedication. We are all charged with leaving our community better than 
we found it, and Cheryl certainly has achieved that mission.
  I ask this body to join me in recognizing Cheryl Calire for her 
commitment to life-affirming advocacy and service. On behalf of the 
United States Congress, and the constituents of the 23rd Congressional 
District, I thank Cheryl, and hope she enjoys her well-deserved 
retirement.
