Thank you for this, Elder...it makes me feel a little better. However, I am not speaking with my pastor to inquire further...he shared with me 6 years ago what happened.
Thank you again, and if I was disrespectful to you in trying to get my point across, please accept my apology.

I am just happy something happened to make you post some again! LOL!!! It was good to see your name on some posts. Remember you don't have to wait until you are mad to post. You can bless us with your thoughts on other things as well.

"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."
