Christian women have been urged to embrace godly character, strength, dignity and integrity in their homes, churches and communities.
The President of the Women and Girls’ Organisation, Diocese of Lagos West, Anglican Communion, Dr Lydia Odedeji, gave the charge while delivering her presidential address at the 27th Annual Women’s Conference themed, “Dressed for Honour.”
A statement made available on Saturday said the theme was drawn from Proverbs 31:25: “She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.”
Odedeji said being “dressed for honour” went beyond outward appearance, stressing that God was more concerned with the spiritual and moral qualities that define a woman.
