David Bernard Weighs In on General Board Decision

[CC1]

The first UPC church I visited where I saw facial hair on the men who were saints and even ushers was Bro. Kershaw's church in the Dallas area back around the late 80's or early 90's. I remember being surprised there were ushers with mustaches.

I have been told there are a lot more churches now that allow facial hair on men which makes sense as I can't imagine on what pretext a pastor could tell a new convert who had a mustache or beard for years that they had to shave it. It would strictly be a test of theiir committment since there is no bible or logic for it.
