Perhaps this is why you are stared at, not because they think you are dressing holy?

No, she looks better than they do.

I agree.
Many Apostolic women dress the same way, and in Shawano, the Apostolic women are mistaken as cult group members.

Maybe your own personal experience?

No. It's happened to several of my Apostolic friends who follow standards to the letter.

Maybe it's because everyone is naked in Fort Lauderdale, but they notice that I dress different from them.

The world is much larger than Fort Lauderdale. However, maybe it's because they think you are a distinguished attorney who doesn't do beaches.

Those who have come over to ask me, they ask what church or religion are we. With me they notice that I always wear long sleeves in an area were the men wear shorts sleeves and short pants with flip flops, or sneakers. For the most part the population down here are soaking up the sun and are looking to roast their hide.

Are we talking about people who see you all the time, or people who see you for the first time?
Quote:
A matter of a fact yes. They loved the way we looked and the kids looked.
I guess it pays to have beautiful boys and girls attending the church.
Then they came to church and Bible study and got the Holy Ghost and were baptized in Jesus name.
Hope that helps
In Jesus name

For real? You have people who have been saved merely because of their attraction to how you were dressed? Is that what they said?
I can't imagine that the clothes you are wearing have a larger impact on someone than the Jesus you wear. I'm thinking they were attracted to your Jesus, not your clothes.
