March 20, 2022

Women’s History Month is a celebration of women’s contributions to history, culture, and society and has been observed annually in the month of March in the United States since 1987. Women’s History month 2022 will take place from Tuesday, March 1 through Thursday, March 31, 2022.  

Spring. The seasons are determined by changing sunlight (not heat) which is determined by how our planet orbits the sun and the tilt of its axis. At the start of spring – the spring equinox – the day and night are approximately 12 hours long and the sun is at the midpoint of the sky. Our north pole tilts towards the sun. Sunday, March 20 is the first day of spring. 

A specially called church meeting has been scheduled for Sunday, March 20, 2022 at noon to give an update of the structural damage repair and Henderson Community Center.

FROM THE ARCHIVES...

Here we are today with our third presentation and we continue to reflect upon advances women have made over the last decade. Women have increased their earnings, education, and fields of occupation, and continue to have longer average life spans than men. We have included some Census Bureau stats highlighting these and other changes over the years. As we continue to celebrate weekly, please join the SBC Memorial and Historical Commission in celebration of our third Women’s History Month woman, Dr. Patricia Era Bath who defied the arts and set her own record of first.
