Hadassa Company: A Mentorship Program for Young Women Embracing Singleness and Preparing for Marriage
Hadassa Company, launched in January 2024, is a mentorship program within Redeeming Love Ministries designed specifically for young ladies who desire marriage but also want to fully embrace and enjoy their season of singleness as a gift from God. Rooted in the ministry’s core values of helping individuals reconnect with God and understand His love, Hadassa Company offers young women the spiritual tools, community, and mentorship needed to thrive in both their single and future married lives. This unique program blends biblical wisdom, practical guidance, and personal development, all within the supportive framework of Christian fellowship.
Embracing Singleness as a Gift from God
For many young women, the desire for marriage is a significant part of their journey, but it can often overshadow the unique opportunities that come with singleness. Hadassa Company reframes the narrative around singleness, teaching participants to view this season of life not as a waiting period but as a gift from God. The program emphasizes that singleness provides a special time for self-discovery, spiritual growth, and preparation for future relationships.
Drawing from biblical principles, Hadassa Company encourages young women to see their singleness as a time to deepen their relationship with God, explore their personal calling, and develop the character traits that will serve them well in marriage and beyond. By fostering a mindset of gratitude and purpose during this stage of life, the program helps young ladies fully embrace who they are in Christ and to trust in God’s timing for the future.
Learning from Influential Women in the Bible
One of the most powerful aspects of the Hadassa Company mentorship program is its focus on learning from influential women in the Bible. Guest speakers, many of whom are experienced women of faith, lead sessions on biblical figures like Esther, Ruth, and Deborah, exploring how their stories offer timeless lessons for women today. Esther, in particular, serves as a central figure in the program, as her journey from obscurity to queenhood mirrors the transformative power of God’s calling and the importance of preparation.
Just as Esther was called to a position of influence and responsibility, the young women in Hadassa Company are reminded that their lives, too, have divine purpose. They are encouraged to view themselves as “modern-day Esthers,” women who can make a significant impact in their families, communities, and the Kingdom of God. Through these teachings, participants learn to cultivate qualities like courage, humility, and faithfulness, which are essential both in singleness and marriage.
Collaborative Growth Through Group Presentations
Hadassa Company places a strong emphasis on collaboration and teamwork, encouraging participants to work together in groups and develop their communication, leadership, and interpersonal skills. Group presentations are a key part of the program, where young women come together to explore various topics, share insights, and encourage one another.
These group activities foster a sense of community and accountability, allowing participants to learn from each other’s perspectives and experiences. By working together in teams, the young women build relationships that provide both support and encouragement on their spiritual journeys. The collaborative nature of the program helps them develop the skills necessary for healthy, God-centered relationships, both in marriage and in friendships.
Studying “Live: Reawakening Identity and Functioning as God Intended”
A core component of Hadassa Company is the collective study of impactful Christian literature. One of the key books the program has focused on is Live: Reawakening Identity and Functioning as God Intended by Isi Igenegba. This book serves as a powerful tool for young women to reexamine their God-given identity and understand how to live out their purpose in accordance with His plan.
Through guided reading sessions, participants not only absorb the lessons from the book but also engage in deep reflection and discussion on how these teachings apply to their lives. This process of studying together fosters a sense of unity and shared growth, as each participant brings unique insights and personal experiences to the table. By reflecting on what they’ve learned, the young ladies are able to internalize the lessons and apply them to their personal journeys, helping them grow spiritually, emotionally, and relationally.
The emphasis on reading and studying together is a vital aspect of Hadassa Company’s approach to mentorship, as it encourages young women to take ownership of their spiritual development. Through the book studies, participants are not only equipped with biblical knowledge but are also empowered to put that knowledge into practice in their everyday lives.
End-of-Month Catch-Ups with Mentors: A Path to Personal Growth
Mentorship is at the heart of Hadassa Company’s structure. Each month, participants have the opportunity to engage in end-of-month catch-ups with their mentors. These one-on-one or small group sessions provide a safe space for young women to ask questions, seek advice, and receive personalized guidance from experienced Christian women who have walked similar paths.
These regular check-ins with mentors are a crucial part of the participants’ personal growth. They offer opportunities for deeper reflection, accountability, and encouragement. Mentors serve as spiritual guides, helping the young ladies navigate challenges, celebrate victories, and stay focused on their goals. Whether discussing personal struggles, spiritual breakthroughs, or future aspirations, these sessions foster a sense of intimacy and trust between mentors and mentees.
Hadassa Company’s mentorship model is designed to create lasting relationships that go beyond the program itself. The guidance and support participants receive from their mentors equip them with the wisdom and confidence needed to face both the joys and challenges of singleness and marriage. By creating a space for honest dialogue and spiritual accountability, the program helps young women grow in maturity and faith, preparing them for the next season of their lives.
Preparing for Marriage with Purpose
While Hadassa Company emphasizes the importance of enjoying and growing during singleness, it also recognizes that many participants desire marriage. The program prepares young women for this significant life step by teaching them the biblical principles of marriage and helping them understand the value of preparing their hearts and minds for this covenant relationship.
Guest speakers and mentors often address topics related to marriage, such as communication, forgiveness, partnership, and spiritual leadership within the home. These teachings equip participants with the tools they need to approach marriage not just as a goal, but as a sacred and purposeful union that reflects God’s love. By preparing for marriage with intentionality and faith, the young women in Hadassa Company are beter equipped to enter into relationships that are grounded in biblical truth and mutual respect.
Hadassa Company is a powerful mentorship program within Redeeming Love Ministries that helps young women embrace their singleness as a gift from God while preparing them for the possibility of marriage. Through biblical teachings, collaborative group work, and the guidance of experienced mentors, participants are equipped to discover their God-given identity, grow in their relationship
with God, and develop the character traits necessary for a successful and God-centred marriage. Whether focusing on personal growth during singleness or preparing for the future, Hadassa Company creates a supportive and nurturing environment where young women can thrive spiritually, emotionally, and relationally.
