Kilts in Church

[TheSp8]

I generally get two basic comments at church, what tartan is that and it's good to see a man in a kilt. The tartan question is usually followed by a recitation of their Scottish bloodlines. I figure if a bunch of stodgy Baptists can accept the kilt then anyone can.

I started wearing a kilt to church about a year ago, but only after asking the minister his feelings. He had studied and worked in Scotland years ago and said he considered a kilt as fine dress, and as such appropriate for worship. As others, the comments are usually pertaining to "which tartan" and a bloodline discussion, or some comment about looking good. I've worn it serving communion, ushering, etc, all with equal comfort and reverence to our Lord.

I'll add my voice to the choir. I wear a kilt to church quite often, and always to Presbytery meetings and Presbytery level committee meetings. If I do not, then people always ask, "where's the kilt"?

Go for it, it is good for the rest of the congregation and their point of view. And you get to be comfortable.

I wear a kilt to church a couple time a month. I even wear it when I'm preaching, and have had mostly positive comments. But then when your doing the preaching, people tend to put up with you quirks!

I've been wearing my kilt to church for the last 7 years no one takes any notice of it now

Just remember; whatever anyone says about the Kilt;
Jesus and the Apostles never,EVER wore pants.

True, but soooo funny To listen to many folks you'd think that the apostles were all dressed in suits with white shirts and ties.

Church was actually the FIRST place I wore my kilt. No one batted an eyelash.

However, historians and archaeologists have come to the conclusion that he probably did wear knitwear.
