Women serving in ministry, teaching roles, missionary work, or representing the Church are expected to maintain modest appearance and conduct consistent with biblical instruction, including modest apparel, sobriety, and avoidance of outward adornment such as braided or elaborate hair styling and the wearing of jewelry for personal ornamentation.

This teaching is based upon the Scriptural instruction that holy women adorn themselves with modest apparel and godly character rather than outward adornment.

• 1 Peter 3:3–4
• Romans 12:1–2
