Dress Code

Out of respect for the Blessed Sacrament, and in keeping with Christian modesty, please observe the following standards of dress:

Women and Girls

  1. A suitable hat or veil should be used, that covers at least the crown of the head (I Cor. 11:5, 6, 10).
  2. No slacks, no sleeveless, revealing, or low-cut clothing (the Marylike Crusade’s standard is that a dress be not cut more than two fingers’ width below pit of throat).
  3. Dresses and skirts should cover knees when you are standing or sitting, and not have long slits in them.
  4. Strapless or spaghetti-strap clothing is always sinfully immodest and should never be worn.
  5. Please avoid “straight skirts” as well, since they are usually form-fitting and tight.

Men and Boys

  1. Suit coat and tie, dress slacks, or other formal attire.
  2. Jeans, shorts, “flip-flops,” and other casual attire are inappropriate for church!
  3. Be sure to also avoid clothing with logos and/or large lettering, as these can be quite distracting.
