May 15, 2025Heritage Christian University has held a transformative workshop for its female staff and faculty, centered on the theme: “The Impact of a Virtuous Woman on a University Environment.” The session was led by distinguished facilitators Mrs. Angel Grandison and Mrs. Alana Ceasar from the USA.
Scriptural Foundations for Virtue
Drawing inspiration from Proverbs 31:10–31 and other supporting scriptures such as 1 Peter 3:3–4, James 1:5, and Colossians 3:23, the colloquy provided a platform for participants to explore how women of virtue can influence the spiritual, academic, and moral atmosphere of a university. Attendees engaged in deep reflection on character development, excellence in work, and the lasting legacy of a godly life within a professional setting.
*”Character and Integrity in Academia
The facilitators emphasized that inner beauty and strength—marked by humility, wisdom, and a quiet spirit—are essential traits for women navigating the demands of academic life. Participants were encouraged to model these values in both professional and personal interactions, building a culture of integrity on campus.
Diligence and Excellence as Worship
Referencing Colossians 3:23, Mrs. Ceasar reminded participants that excellence in work is a form of service to God. The biblical example of Lydia (Acts 16:14) was shared to illustrate how spiritual devotion can be effectively combined with leadership, hard work, and influence in one’s field.
Faith in Difficult Times
The session addressed the reality of challenges in professional life. Participants were urged to stay grounded in Scripture—particularly Psalm 1:1–3 and Matthew 6:33—and to seek God first in times of uncertainty. Spiritual resilience, they noted, is critical to sustaining joy and effectiveness in one’s role.
Legacy and Lasting Impact
A major highlight of the workshop was the reminder that a virtuous woman is not only morally upright but also a change agent. Proverbs 31:30 was used to drive home the message that true influence and praise come from revering God, and that such women shape institutions through quiet strength and consistency.
Personal Reflection and Devotional Practice
The session ended with personal reflection exercises, where participants were guided to evaluate their spiritual walk, professional conduct, and growth areas. The facilitators encouraged them to maintain private devotion as a vital part of their journey.
Proposed Topics for Future Workshops
Participants expressed strong interest in continuing the series with more in-depth sessions. Suggested future topics include:
Balancing Faith and Career in Academia
Mentorship and Discipleship Among Female Colleagues
Building Emotional and Spiritual Resilience
Cultivating a Spirit-Led Work Ethic
The Role of Prayer in Professional Development
Conclusion: Empowering Women of Faith
This colloquy reaffirmed the university’s commitment to holistic development by equipping female professionals to integrate faith and excellence in their roles. It also marked the beginning of a broader initiative to empower women to lead with godly character across all spheres of campus life. […]
