Sister Allen / Craft and TLC sat with me and my wife at TLC's granddaughters wedding here in Nashville about 1 1/2 years ago and I reminded her that she had been my pastors wife for a week or two! I remember them bringing a really nice door hanger flower arrangement to the hospital when my daughter was born which really impressed me because they knew that we were moving just as they were coming to pastor but made that gesture anyway.

"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."
