  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mrs. 
Bernice Tinsley for her dedication to dedication to St. Thomas United 
Methodist Church.
  At 94 years old, Mrs. Tinsley is the oldest living member at Saint 
Thomas United Methodist Church in Sylacauga. Alabama.
  She has previously served as a Sunday school teacher, choir member, 
Older Adult Ministry Chair, and a Vacation Bible School instructor. She 
is known among friends and fellow church members for her loving spirit 
and her infectious smile.
  Mrs. Tinsley is the loving mother of 3 sons.
  Mrs. Tinsley's dedicated service to her community is one that every 
Alabamian should be proud of. Her dedication to the lives of others has 
truly made a difference and given hope and encouragement to so many 
people.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing Mrs. Tinsley and her 
lifetime of service to the Saint Thomas United Methodist Church.
