minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GUEST. Mr. Speaker, on December 13 through December 15, First 
Baptist Church of Jackson will present Carols by Candlelight, a much-
loved Christmas music tradition in Mississippi that shares the good 
news of the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ, through a magnificent 
Christmas concert.
  This year, Carols by Candlelight celebrates its 50th anniversary, 
with more than 325 choir members, 60 orchestra members, and hundreds of 
volunteers. They will present five live performances for more than 
16,000 people while many more will watch online.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate First Baptist Jackson on achieving this 
special milestone.
  May God bless this 50th anniversary performance of Carols by 
Candlelight.
  ``Soli Deo Gloria.'' To God alone be the glory.
