Denim skirts out of blue jeans at UPC seminar

[Sister Alvear]

It is just I think we ought to be transparent....to come here and read and take somewhere else and talk about the forum in a derogatory manner does not seem Christian to me...maybe I was a little too sharp but some UC´s many need to relearn what it is to be a Christian.
I really think he is sincere but very unseasoned and inexperienced...I think he wants to be saved with all his heart so if that is true a little motherly rebuke will make him into a better Christian.
If anyone does not like it here that is fine. I feel very uncomfortable on some forums but do not bad mouth them...

Beloved friends....we are near the end of this system of things as my JW friend expresses....more than ever before we NEED each other...I believe many things will happen that will draw God´s people closer together not further apart...

I personally have repented for things I have said at times on the net...we must all draw closer to the Lord.

Oh no, dear Sister. That was never MY jumper. I bought it, but it never fit right. So apparently God bought it for you. He just used my hands to write to the check for it.

I would say, "post a pic" but if I remember correctly, it's a denim jumper. Right? LOL Wouldn't want to make anyone uncomfortable. hehehehe

[Sister Alvear]

yes, it is and I love it....but love you folks the best! Thanks for being His channel of blessing to me.

Very cute with heels! (No tennis shoes for me, thank you).

I think when you're in UPC, it's kind of a stigma, but after being gone for 17+ years, denim skirts are just cute!

Yup...agreed

After his rantings my pastor got up and said that that guy did not speak for us here and basically to disregard what he had to say lol....I don't know whether or not to say my pastor was patient or what but at another church across town he tried the same thing and the pastor there stopped him in the middle of his message.

Prax: my former UPC church in Illinoi preached the same thing.

It made me so glad that I was no longer in that congregation.

Back to the subject. If it was made for men, no matter what you do to it it's still men's apparel. Besides that, most jean skirts look sloppy. I believe women can look holy and still look feminine.
