My first impression of Apostolic Friends Forum is that the title is the antithesis of the content, and the fellowship hall is anything but. I am amazed at what people can say and do and still consider themselves Christains. I doubt I'll be back.

Welcome hoppedupmedic! Quite a debut post ripping the place but oh well. Hopefully you will take a little more time to check AFF out beyond your snap judgement (emphasis on the word "judgement").
God Bless

"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."
