Apostle Michael Canty of The Truth Ministries Holiness Church recently angered an entire wedding party and might have damaged his new ministry's reputation after he refused to allow a bride wed her husband on her wedding day because he felt her dress was too sexy.

Lisa Washington said 'she's never been more embarrassed then Saturday' when a local pastor refused to officiate and allow the bride to wed her husband on her wedding day in his facility.Both families were present and the food was waiting to be served at the bride's aunt house. Family members flew and drove long distances to be present for the couples special day.

Upset and frustrated, guest at the wedding practically 'begged' the leaders of the church to reconsider but to no avail, not a budge."I can't believe this! I flew here to attend my cousin's wedding and now I have to put up with this crap.Now this so-called pastor doesn't want to come out of his office" said the cousin of the bride.

The wedding scheduled Saturday, August 10th, was scheduled for 3pm. At 2pm, the pastor greeted the bride and groom when he noticed the bride's dress.According to the bride's mother, the pastor jokingly asked 'where is the other half of the dress?' Not thinking anything of it, the family laughed it off and continued applying make-up to the bride.

Around 2:30pm the pastor asked a leader of the church to ask the bride and the family about the other part of her dress. The bride informed the leader 'this is it'.The leader reported the news to the pastor and then the pastor informed face-to-face the bride and groom at separate times he could not perform the wedding with the bride in her selected dress.

The pastor told the bride she would have to cover up her bosom area and find a way to add length to the dress. The bride informed the pastor there is no way to accomplish this with so short notice and she has to wear her dress.The pastor let her know, he would not perform the ceremony then walked back to his office.The wedding party tried many times to change the pastor's decision but their efforts was ineffective.

Around 4:15pm guest at the wedding were growing impatience and were looking for answers for the delay. When they were told the reason for the delay around 4:35pm their impatience change to anger and disbelief.After hearing how the bride was crying her eyes out in back, a minister who was a guest at the wedding offered to perform the ceremony.

When the minister asked the pastor for permission to perform the ceremony, the pastor told him 'no' and expressed to him how his request was disrespectful.AmericaPreachers.com asked the bride and groom for pictures of the dress but instead was sent an email with a link of the exact dress worn by a professional model from the companies website.

The bride did mention, 'there were small alterations made to the dress to fit more desirably to my [bride] vision.'"I'm a unique person, I chose this dress because it's different than the traditional wedding gown you see at every wedding" the bride said. Two days later the couple is not married and is currently looking into options to recoup money their family lost with travel, food, and other expenses.

The Truth Ministries Holiness Church was established 14 months ago and currently rent a converted shoe store for worship services. Calls to Apostle Canty and Truth Ministries were not returned. Neither the bride or groom were members of the church.

God did not send him to come and be judging people's dressing, he should have preached the undiluted word of God and let the Word do the work.

Because the word is strong at changing any hardened heart.

WWJD
Remember wat he did in John 2 vs 16

The pastor is right, if you are unable to dress decently doomed the day of your wedding, do not go to church for the celebration, go only for mayor. If the picture of the bride is really this picture attached, it's a scandal, all boobs are out.
