The church says it won't turn anyone away for wearing something that is less-than-ideal for church, but it does hope people will follow the recommendations at the front entrance.
Why not turn them away? Look, it's about time to put an end to all this touchy-feely nonsense. As long as parishioners have had ample time to be forewarned of the “new” dress code, then they should dress accordingly.

It would seem pretty obvious what you should and should not wear, if you were to attend religious services, but one local church felt it necessary to spell out a dress code for its parishioners. Shorts, straps, skirts.... all those are on Our Lady of Guadalupe church's list of inappropriate attire. "It all started because my daughter was asking why she couldn't wear little shorts to church. I told her that's not proper for church,” said parish council chair Martha Fernandez. “We should dress in a decent manner so as not to distract. We’re here to worship God. It's not about what you're wearing." Some women might say the sign is gender-biased, but the women we talked to say it is the women who are the biggest offenders when it comes to dressing inappropriately at church. “The worst thing I’ve ever seen at church? Wooooo….... a woman wearing white pants that you could see through,” said Millie Gaebe of Sacramento. Our Lady of Guadalupe is not the only church with a dress code. The Salam Center off College Oak provides dresses and scarves for the women and hats for the men, if need be. "When you go to visit the governor or the president, are you going to visit them in shorts or a mini skirt? How about coming to visit the creator of the governor and the president? I think you should wear your best,” said Salam Center Executive Director Metwalli Amer. Salam Center office manager Alana Blake says you don't have to sacrifice style for modesty. "I find modern pieces and then I add sleeves and pants. If it's a long dress for summer, maxi dresses are in, so, I add a T-shirt or day shirt under it,” she said.
