                        Thursday, April 24, 2025

  Mr. BILIRAKIS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the outstanding 
contributions that Carol Berti has made on through her work with Oasis 
Pregnancy Centers. Carol is a rare gem in the volunteer world; 
dedication is her middle name. For 16 years, Carol has served Oasis 
with warmth, compassion, and dedication to the families of Oasis. Carol 
was an integral part of the start-up of Oasis in 2009 and continues to 
be a cornerstone of the ministry at the Land O' Lakes center. Her 
unwavering desire to be a light to each woman who walks through the 
door of Oasis is a shining example of her obedience to Christ and His 
call on her life. Carol helps vet new volunteers and works with Center 
Directors to find the right fit for each volunteer and for Oasis. Carol 
is an inspiration to the staff and the team she serves with. 
Additionally, Carol has served for years as a Sunday School teacher 
each week and Poll Captain of elections in her area. She truly is a 
Hero in the community.
  It is clear Carol Berti has made a profoundly positive impact on our 
community, and I am grateful for her service. May we all strive to 
serve our communities with the same dedication and humility.
