  Mrs. McCLAIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor an extraordinary 
woman whose life of faith, service, and leadership has left a lasting 
impact on her community and the Church.
  Mother Regina Rose Edwards, who is celebrating 90 blessed years, is a 
native of River Rouge, Michigan. She has dedicated her life in service 
to her Church and community and has raised a proud family.
  Throughout our Nation's history, we have always been inspired by 
those whose faith and unwavering commitment uplifts others. Mother 
Regina Rose Edwards goes beyond these criteria.
  For decades, Mother Edwards has embodied compassion, wisdom, and 
dedication in her role as matriarch within the Church of God in Christ 
and as a beloved member of the Michigan Southwest First Ecclesiastical 
Jurisdiction.
  Her ministry has brought comfort and community to countless families. 
Through prayer, mentorship, and love, she has been a guiding light to 
many.
  As she celebrates her 90th birthday, I wanted to take an opportunity 
to recognize her faith, service, and lifetime of commitment to her 
community.
  Mr. Speaker, the legacy of Mother Regina Rose Edwards is one of 
service over self. I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing and 
celebrating her remarkable achievements and contributions to our 
Nation, her community, and the Church.
