Women’s History Month had its origins as a national celebration in 1981 when Congress passed Pub. L. 97-28 which authorized and requested the President to proclaim the week beginning March 7, 1982 as Women’s History Week.

Let us pray. Thank you for all the cherished women in our lives and in our histories: friends, siblings, mothers, and neighbors. God, may women across the globe continue to be empowered, and may we gladly receive the leadership and witness they offer, knowing your love for all. Amen.
