Subject: [BRE] Divideing wall in the church
Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2010 13:54:55 -0600


I was rather taken back by the fact that a wood head high wall divided
the church with women on one side and men on the other. What was the
thinking that a wall have to be placed between the men and women. I
have thought that it was perhaps because many of the women may have had
infants that they would need to nurse during to church. Other than
that I am stumped why a wall was placed done the middle of room.
Were all Brethren churches built like this or was in just one group
that choose such separation.
Thanks, Dove
