  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, on June 14, 2015, Archbishop Charles 
Chaput will celebrate a Mass commemorating the close of the year-long 
celebration of the 50th Anniversary of St. John the Evangelist Parish. 
The parish has faithfully attended to the spiritual needs of the 
community for 50 years, providing a place of prayer, meditation and 
reflection. Furthermore, the parishioners in the Lower Makefield, Bucks 
County church, built bonds of charity throughout the community with 
their devotion to those most in need. They dutifully collect and 
distribute food and clothing, school supplies, and visit the sick and 
homebound, year after year. St. John the Evangelist Parish has extended 
its mission, reaching out to the needy in nearby Trenton, New Jersey 
and Philadelphia, as well as supporting church missions worldwide. In 
so doing, the parishioners have demonstrated their faith through their 
good works. Congratulations on this anniversary year with all best 
wishes for the continuation of your community of the faithful far into 
the future.
