\nIt was on March 13, 1923 that a cable was received from Britain with the words �Go ahead�, In the belief that no service to India could be greater than the education of women. St.Christopher�s is linked with the thought that a teacher�s devoted service to children is service to God. Preparations for the establishment in Madras of a United Christian Training College for women graduates began in consequence of a minute recorded by the Madras Educational Council early in 1921. This minute emphasized the need for United Christian effort in connection with the training of women teachers. It was hoped that such training would not only give teachers more skill in their profession as a Christian vocation and in particular that it would help them with the teaching of Scripture.
