The Golden State Order of the Eastern Star, Prince Hall Rite of Adoption State of California will recognize 13 women at the “Extraordinary Women That Rock” luncheon.

The awards event will be held on Saturday, April 22, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the Double Tree by Hilton, 21333 Hawthorne Blvd., in Torrance. The hosts are 2017 Grand Worthy Matron Meredith Y. Bell and Most Worshipful Grand Master, the Honorable Dr. Donald R. Ware and Grand Worthy Patron Willie James Adams III.

“Come out and celebrate with us,” said Bell, who invites the community to attend. “I believe in order to move in a new direction, it takes the participation of all as each day comes with new strengths and thoughts working together in charity, truth and loving kindness.

“Let’s move so that our lights may shine in our communities and homes like a star shinning in heaven done great things in the community,” she added.
