Though I think a man of God does not have the authority to dictate what type of hair his congregation should wear, the way and manner some of these church women rock those long weaves must have made this necessary.
Whatever it is, I will be glad if a certain church I know in Ghana adopts this too. Enough of those floor sweeping weaves..
According to America Preachers;
“Our black women are getting weaves trying to be something and someone they are not. Be real with yourself is all I’m saying” said Pastor Aamir.
Pastor Aamir admits he was raised in a strict household. His mother and father are members of the Islamic faith. At 39 years old, he leads a congregation whose average age is 22.
“Long hair don’t care. What kind of mess is that? I don’t want my members so focused on what’s on their heads and not IN their heads” he told AmericaPreachers.com.
“I lead a church where our members are struggling financially. I mean really struggling. “Yet, a 26 year old mother in my church has a $300 weave on her head. NO. I will not be quiet about this.”
Pastor Aamir acknowledges he cannot legally prohibit women from wearing weaves in church, but he still highly disapproves it.
Resurrecting Faith was founded by Pastor Aamir and is located in Waco, Texas.
HAHAHA, THAT PASTOR WILL NEVER GAIN CONGREGATION IF HE WERE TO BE IN GH. ONLY MEN WOULD HAVE ATTENDED HIS CHURCH.
@KA NE WU,
That’s a GOOD one.
LOL… He’s kind of right about the $300 weave and if these mothers are struggling then, you need to ask where are they getting the money from?!?! He’s just worried about them doing what ever it takes to get the weaves.
@Amoah, am sure the offertory and tithes will also increase if they stop spending money on weaves no? smart pastor lol
…hahahahahahaha… this got me all cracked up!!! which church is dat?… cuz i live in Texas and would love to go and see things for myself…
He is right. I remember way back in school I almost used my fees to buy a Brazilian hiar cos most of my frends at church hard It on. This hair thing is causing a lot of distraction in church.
