Re: Royal Tailor Band
A couple of years ago I was at a mainstream UPC church when the Tupelo Children's Mansion group was visiting. A group of around 4 teenagers (two boys and two girls if memory serves me right) did "signing" to a powerful song. They were awesome but the reality was what they were doing was synchronized dancing from the waist up - LOL.
I kept thinking that I wish I could see what they could really do if allowed to use their bodies from the waist down. It was obvious they had tremendous dancing talent. Had to keep those legs and feet still though so they could say it wasn't dancing!!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
