Re: A couple miscues from childhood on a UPC pew.
These are great! I am sitting here laughing. The story that comes to my mind isn't a church one but was from the first Gulf war in 1991. My oldest son was 7 years old. The family had to endure me having the tv on the 24 hour news channel as I followed the war effort to free Kuwait from the Iraqi invasion. After a few days of this my son asked me one evening "Does Saddam sing good?" I was floored trying to figure out why he would ask that but understood when he explained he was asking because the newscaster's kept talking about "Saddam who sang" (Saddam Hussain)!!! LOL

"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."
