"The Women of Worth Worldwide Conference was a spiritually enriching and economically empowering three-day program attended by 120 ladies from 18 participating congregations.
"The conference, themed 'Woman: God's Design,' emphasized the dignity, worth, purpose, and indispensable role of women in God's divine plan (Genesis 1:27; Proverbs 31:10–31). Participants were taught that women are created with God-given abilities to strengthen their families, serve the church, influence their communities, and contribute meaningfully to evangelism and benevolence.
"We experienced a significant spiritual harvest as two souls obeyed the Gospel through baptism, bringing great joy and thanksgiving to God.
"Using Proverbs 31:10–31, particularly the example of the virtuous woman, the conference combined biblical instruction with practical economic survival skills. Participants received hands-on training in producing laundry bar soap, powdered detergent, Izal disinfectant, liquid soap and chin-chin (a sweet snack).
"These skills were designed to help women become economically productive, generate income, support their families, and contribute financially to the work of the church.
"Biblical examples of Dorcas (Acts 9:36–39), renowned for her charitable works, and Lydia (Acts 16:14–15, 40), a businesswoman who supported God's servants, demonstrated how economically empowered women can advance evangelism, hospitality, and benevolence.
"As a practical step towards sustainability, each participating congregation received financial support to help its women begin implementing the skills acquired during the conference. This initiative was intended to transform learning into productive economic activities."
