March is National Women’s History Month. Women's History Month is an annual observance to
highlight the contributions of women to events in history and contemporary society. It is celebrated
during March in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, corresponding with International
Women's Day on March 8. This year's theme is centered on “Moving Forward Together! Women
Educating & Inspiring Generations.”

This past November Vallejo Drive Seventh-day Adventist Church celebrated their 100th anniversary in
Glendale, California. One hundred years is a remarkable milestone—whether it marks the health and
vitality of a centenarian or the enduring legacy of institutions rooted in tradition and growth.
Marking the official 100-year anniversary on July 23, 2024, the church hosted a large celebration this
past November, as former members and church leaders, community members, and more gathered to
celebrate.
