the parish community of St. Andrew Catholic Church, as members

and leaders celebrate 100 years of faith and hope throughout 
Cleveland's southwest side.
  Throughout the past century, St. Andrew parish has served as a 
spiritual refuge, opening its doors to individuals and families in 
search of guidance, spirituality and peace.
  The ministry of St. Andrew began in 1906, serving immigrant families 
who settled in Cleveland. Since that time, a number of pastors and 
parishioners have served as critical guides in the journey of the 
faithful at St. Andrew Church. Over the years, the parish community has 
evolved and grown, and has also survived numerous struggles and 
hardships.
  Mr. Speaker and colleagues, please join me in honor and recognition 
of every past and current member and spiritual leader of St. Andrew 
Catholic Church. Despite hardship and adversity, St. Andrew Catholic 
Church continues to provide a haven of faith, guidance, renewal and 
support for hundreds of families and individuals, in the heart 
Cleveland and far beyond.
