PURPOSE AND MISSION OF
THE CHRISTIAN DEBUTANTES
 
The purpose of the Christian Debutante Program is to prepare young ladies for presentation to Christian Society.  This will be achieved through workshops and activities designed to allow them to demonstrate newly learned skills and to display their talents and accomplishments.  The goal is to elevate and motivate them to a life of holiness to fulfill God’s purpose and plan for their lives, to walk by the Word, and to enjoy the journey as they pursue it.  The Christian Debutante Program at New Hope Missionary Baptist Church of Southfield, Michigan, is a “program component” of the Youth Ministry. It was implemented in 2002, under the pastorate of Rev. David L. Roberson.
 
The Debutante program designers believed that
though home and spiritual training, scholastic
experiences, and faith nurturing within the Church;
young women will be able to face challenges that life
has to offer and will be motivated to transform
problems into possibilities.
 
Through Bible based teachings, Debutantes will be taught what God’s requirements are.  This is achieved via Bible-concentrated workshops and activities.  As the young ladies enter into womanhood, the Debutantes learn what God demands are regarding morality, integrity, responsibility, obedience, grace, and mercy. After studying God’s Word, topics related to Etiquette, Social Awareness, Professional Image, Public Speaking, College Preparation and Career Planning are presented and taught by persons with great skill, assured competence, knowledge and experience in these subject areas. The workshops are designed to help the Debutantes demonstrate newly learned skills and to display them as they enter into womanhood.
