INTRODUCTION

“Each of the World Divisions determines current policy, specs and procedures.” (Pathfinder Administrative Manual
p.52, 2005 Edition).
“Make sacred garments for your brother Aaron, to give him dignity and honor” (Exodus 28:2, NIV).
“Everything connected with the apparel and deportment of the priests was to be such as to impress the beholder with
a sense of the holiness of God, the sacredness of His worship, and the purity required of those who came into His
presence” (Gospel Workers p.173.2).
‘’You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the
praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light:” (1 Peter 2:9).
The objectives of the Youth Ministries Department Uniform:
1. To make the youth program real and visible.
2. To create a consciousness of belonging to an ‘army of workers’ whose duty is to fight the good fight of faith.
3. To give youth dignity and honor as they serve as representatives of Jesus and the church.
It is recommended that uniforms be worn on the following occasions:
At all youth meetings
At any public gathering when any or all act as:
Messengers or Ushers
Guard of Honor or Color Guards
On occasions as specified by the director
At special Youth Department services
While engaging in witness activity, or community service such as Ingathering, distributing food baskets,
flowers, literature, etc.
Uniforms should NOT be worn:
By nonmembers
When engaged in selling or solicitation for personal profit or for commercial or political purposes
At any time or place when its wearing discounts the organization or the Southern Africa-Indian Ocean
Division (SID) Youth Ministries Department

These uniform regulations have been adapted by the SID for its constituency. This First Edition serves as the
Official Uniform Specifications Document of the SID Youth Ministries Department. Its intent is to bring order and
uniformity in the whole SID territory. Any deviation from these guidelines without consultation with the SID and your local
Union Youth Ministries Department betrays SDA Christian principles and our theme ‘THE POWER OF ONE’.
