The TitusTouch Commissioning Ceremony

The TitusTouch Commissioning is a regal ceremony that celebrates the completion of the Biblical Womanhood Series and represents the commitment of the one who is being commissioned “to teach the younger women” the same truths they have learned. The structure and format can be created by any group as they desire; however, we request the following elements be included:

  1. A presentation of the “Titus Touch Biblical Womanhood” Commissioning Requirements.
  2. A presentation of each woman, one at a time, to the attending body with the introduction of  “The fragrance of the Lord and (name of lady)”!
  3. A presentation to each woman of an alabaster jar, hand-tooled and imported from Israel,  representing light, purity and honor.
  4. A bottle of spikenard, imported from Israel, representing consecration and worship.
  5. A “Titus Touch ‘Dancing with Joy’ Silver and Swarovski Crystal Pendant”, especially designed by Deborah J. Birdoes, representing the Word of God that is hidden in her heart.
Alabaster Oil

We also recommend the following three elements be a part of the ceremony that we feel will enhance the moment for all:

First, invite a guest speaker to deliver a challenging and inspirational address and read the commissioning requirements, and invite a soloist to perform the song “Alabaster Box” as the women prepare for presentation to the attendees.

Second, after presenting the alabaster jar, have each woman stand in place until all who are being commissioned have been presented. Then invite her husband (if she is married), or a designate, to come and place the pendant around her neck signifying the TitusTouch Commissioning.

Third, the TitusTouch Commissioning Commitment is recited by the participating ladies confirming their service to other women and young women of the church according Titus 2:3-5.

Finally, the entire group of women being commissioned should be presented to the attending body as The TitusTouch Commissioned Women of Your Church. Then invite the attending body to express their congratulations.

The key is to stress the “Commissioning Commitment to Teach”. Each leadership group is encouraged to facilitate the teaching program immediately after the commissioning so that the process is not lost in “the cares of this world”. (Mark 4:19) The teaching process can be in your church, your home, or other setting that allows for study, sharing, and ministry on a regular basis.

May God richly bless your call to mentoring women in biblical womanhood.
