Stupid statement! I LOOKED on Google! Maybe you should have asked me if I did.

I am shocked you don't know how to find out what sections are where in your state. You certainly seem to be UPC, I can tell by reading your posts

Maybe you should work on your attitude first before you should worry about what section you are in.

Re: How to find which upci section you are in?

why do we need an online thing to tell us when I can just ask my pastor???

How does one go about finding this information out?

I know you can ask your local pastor, but that is not what I am talking about.

I am talking about if you see something going on in a section outside your area you may want to attend, it would be easy if they gave the area assoctaied with that section.

To say some event is in section 2 for example, would do nothing for me..... as I do not know what parts of Tennessee section 2 covers!

Yet a LOT of upci events are advertised in just such a way!

To me, it has always puzzled me why they do this.
When I was a young UPCer in the deep South everybody knew what section they were in because there were enough UPC churches around that you had sectional meetings. Sectional Youth meetings and then annually a big sectional meeting that was sort of like a mini campmeeting.

As far as finding out what section you are in I would reccommend seeking out one of the Pentecostal evangelists who specializes in a "prophetic" ministry and perhaps he can give you a "word" as to which section you are in!

"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."

Used to love section meetings, highlight of the month!
