NDEMC Interpreter's
​Platform Policy and Guidelines

The people who minister on our platform and in leadership or public roles are the most visible representatives of our fellowship and should mirror the spirit and standards we teach. Ministry is not the performance of an hour; it is the example of a godly lifestyle. Our character and devotion to God must be the foundation of what we project publicly.
 
Should you choose not to meet these minimum requirements, integrity and ethics would require that you not participate in public ministry at national meetings.
 
General Guidelines
  1. All participants must be actively involved in a local UPC Church.
  2. Must have experienced the New Birth according to Acts 2:38 and must be endeavoring to live a holy life.
  3. Any guest may be used with the approval of the General Superintendent or his designee, (i.e., a politician, official or other person who has a need to be on the platform.)
 
Dress Code for Men
  1. Long sleeve shirts and a tie are to be worn. A coat is recommended. (Exception: when casual attire is allowed, ties and suit coats are optional, and sleeves should be to the elbow.)
  2. No tight fitting trousers or pants that leave the leg exposed.
  3. Can remove coat if necessary.
  4. Modest necklines
  5. No long hair below the collar or reaching over the ears or down in the eyes or outlandish styles are acceptable.
  6. No jewelry of any kind allowed except wedding ring and watch.
    
Dress Code for Ladies
  1. Sleeves to the elbows. You are to be modest even when raising your hands.
  2. Modest necklines, front and back, not low cut.
  3. Hem length is to be below the knees, both while standing and sitting down.
  4. Splits in the skirts must end below the knee. Wrap-around skirts, should follow this same principle.
  5. Slacks and pants are not acceptable.  Gauchos, culottes, tights or any other garment that divides the legs may not be worn as an outer garment.
  6. No attire that immodestly draws attention to the body by being too tight fitting. No sheer material that immodestly exposes the body. Sheer material should not come above elbows or knees.
  7. Hair must be worn in a neat fashion.  If you have cut your hair in the past and have been restored, your hair must be fixed to look uncut, if possible.
  8. No jewelry of any kind except engagement and/or wedding ring and watch.
  9. No make-up, no colored fingernails or toenails.
 
Modest apparel draws attention to the countenance.  Let your countenance testify to the joy of the Lord in your heart!
