Christian Women in Leadership (CWL), a religious organisation, is organising a national Women Summit on October 3 to seek divine assistance to protect the youth from moral degeneration.
CWL, which is a Christian fellowship for Christian mothers, is organising the event for over 30 participants in Accra on the theme: "Ghana@50: Stable Homes: A Stable Nation."
Ms. Regina Eva Addae, Founder of CWL, who made this known at a press briefing in Accra, expressed the need for Christian mothers to pray to stop the social vices that had characterized the behaviour of the youth in society.
She said Christian mothers must rise to the responsibility of training children to become better citizens, adding, "What we make of them is how they grow to become.”
Ms Addae observed that the nation had failed to do much for the youth in terms of their training and upbringing and this had resulted in a number of social problems such as unemployment and streetism.
"Except something is done, these social vices will continue," she warned.
She noted that the moulding of a person's character was largely the responsibility of women.
"This is why I think we should look again at the roles women play in nation building and help them to have the necessary tools to do their work better.”
Ms. Addae said the summit would be used to honour dedicated and committed Christian mothers who had single-handedly trained their children in the fear of the Lord.
CWL provides a platform for Christian women from various Christian denominations to discuss common problems facing them and seek religious growth and maturity.
