Vendor Policy
The Assemblies of The Lord Jesus Christ reserves the right to refuse display space to any vendor that it deems as displaying material, goods, or services that it believes to be inappropriate, in conflict with or unfairly in competition with ALJC organization member displays, in conflict with the ALJC interpretation of its Biblical beliefs and Statement of Faith, or that conflict with or are inconsistent with written policies of the ALJC Board of Publications.
In respect of this organization’s beliefs and holiness standards, appropriate, modest dress is required of all vendors at all times. During the time that a table or display is in operation, dress shirts and dress slacks or suits are to be worn by men; dresses or blouses with skirts that have hemlines below the knee must be worn by women. Sleeveless blouses or shirts are not permitted. During setup and tear down of displays, modest apparel must be worn. Women may wear modest, casual dresses or blouses and modest skirts; men may dress in casual attire.
At no time is any item – clothing or any item for display or sale – permitted to be worn or displayed that exhibits or infers inappropriate or obscene information or pictures. Failure to follow these rules may result in an immediate cancellation of display and vending privileges and loss of all fees paid to the ALJC for those privileges. The ALJC General Board and its interpretation of the ALJC Statement of Faith and Biblical beliefs is the governing authority with regard to all vendors, their displays, and allowable services and products.
