My memory escapes me at present of more, but in looking at all those pictures, I would say that the Alvears believe and teach dress standards. I am sure Bro Epley could post many more.

As far as Peru goes, you can add the Coles as well.
Matt, pants are not necessarily a part of the cultures of these places you've mentioned with the exception of Taiwan. And as far as Taiwan goes, the Brackens could be listed with the Edmonds. We've been in Taiwan and ministered there.
I know the struggle that goes on in regard to these standards issues on foreign fields. I also know the pressure that's brought to bear to measure up to westerners' expectations.
