“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the choir from Immaculate Conception Church and School in North Little Rock, Arkansas, for being invited to represent our State at the inaugural Dublin Choral Festival in Ireland later this year. More than 240 voices from around the United States will sing together at the festival, and Immaculate Conception is the only group from our State of Arkansas. The group of 48 parishioners, ranging in age from 10 to 87, is led by Music Director Steve Guilmet. While there, the choir will travel to Belfast, Northern Ireland, where they will attend mass and perform during the service. Along with their performances, the parishioners will be raising money to support local hunger and poverty programs, and the parish there will host them. I congratulate those parishioners on their hard work, and I join all Arkansans in wishing them the very best as they represent our State in Ireland. Arkansas Canoe Club Trash Removal Team”
