My Dad was REALLY mad about that...LOL!!!!!

But...I don't think the red dress thing was ever in the UPC...was it? I thought that was a purely AMF/ultra-con thing.
It was there at some point because my parents were aware of it and the UPC was all they knew, (other than my mom's family is AG). I was shocked the first time I heard it. piggy backing on another thread I will text her and ask her, but she is on the West Coast so it may be awhile before she responds.

I grew up AMF and Red was not preached against at our church
a lot of other things were but not ours. We did know however that there were some that did preach against it.

Let's not get carried away trying to find fault. It isn't anymore attractive on a liberal than on a conservative.

Obviously those are candid photos. My goodness, here awhile back our drama dept. did a little presentation, and in every photo, I have some kind of scrunched up, weird facial expression (different in every one, but none of them pleasant). I'm not sure how that happened, but the photographer just happened to catch me at some "intense" moments.

Doesn't mean I'm not a happy person! Or that I never look pleasant for that matter. Kind of like getting caught on film shoveling in a mouthful of food doesn't mean you're a glutton.

I don't think we were nitpicking. Just having a little fun with a pic. Those ladies could have been standing in remremberance of loved ones who died for all we know so the sad faces could be entirely appropriate.

It was more the sad faces combined with the co-incidence of them both wearing red dresses that made the imagination run wild with possible captions about these women in red at an ultra con meeting!

AMC, a WPFer, wow? Who was your pastor? Did you move or just decide to go UPC?

GOD BLESS!

Hello, this is my first time ever posting anything. I was at the conference in Branson. I believe the fellowship goes by WPF not WWPF. We've recently pulled out of the UPC, my home Church is in Buchanan MI. I was looking something up online and came across this Apostolic Friends Fellowship and it looked interesting. Then I saw Elder Steve Epley leaves post here so I decided to register. I highly respect this elder. The meeting in Branson MO. was very balanced. I guess by most peoples standards I'm considered far to the right on about all issues. Its very easy to dwell on negatives.. and I know I can find fault with anything or anyone if I'm looking for it. The Executive council of the WPF is top notch. I question anyones integrity or intelligence who would criticize these Elders. Unless of course you've done more for the Kingdom then they have. Lord willing I'll be at the confernce in '09. And hopefully I can make it to the AMC conference in Nashville also.
