I am NOT a southern person/ or from anywhere near the south...at all!!! 6 years of **** ~I could not adapt to the tropical weather....(some) people and the whole race thing...... I HATED it! I was sick most of the time with colds, strep and bad sinus problems because of the damp and humid climate.....much less sick OF the hatred this city was OVER-flowing with! Gang wars ~ crime and murders was off the chain! I prayed so hard for God to rescue my family and get us out of that nightmare....and he did! THANK GOD!!!!!!!

When I moved to the Nashville area 13 years ago I quickly learned that if you are from here it is your duty to despise Memphis. Something that is easy to do if you have ever been to Memphis! It is certainly a town you don't want to take a wrong turn in. My SIL was carjacked while there on a business trip and had a gun held to his head, laptop stolen, etc. Lucky to have lived to tell the tale.

"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."
