I attend ALC in Plano. We recently welcomed Paul Cook as our pastor, and the church is leaning more conservative than in recent years. Pastor Dan Rigdon still serves as Pastor Emeritus, and the church staff are great people.

I haven't been to North Cities for a while, but they used to be much more conservative than we were. Now I think they are a little less so. Good people over there.

Our previous pastor, Jeff Hennigan is now in a staff position at Mike Hayes' church in Carrollton. Another great church from what I understand.

Very interesting that you say ALC is "leaning more conservative". Is the new pastor going to make the Pastor Emeritus shave his beard? LOL!!

That might explain why the one person I know who went there has left. I don't know them well enough to ask.

"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."

Have been exposed to the ministry of Bro. Cook for years through various camps, audio ministry, seminars and personal contact. Good man, excellent leader and effective minister. If I lived in the area, I would seriously consider attending.

Agree. He was my youth pastor many years ago at this church, and he continues to exhibit the qualities you mentioned. Really love the direction our church is heading.
