Question for any Presbyterian ministers or those in the know.

Thanks, that gives me a start. I could always pick up a set of black socks, use a black shirt and I have a blue tie that would match the kilt. Coming up with a jacket might be the hard part. Collars are rare on the ground here but I feel they are an important symbol that is disappearing and intend to wear one to any functions after ordination.

One wouldn't think that the Presbyterian Church would have a problem with kilts, seeing as the denomination was itself started in Scotland.

Good on ya. One of the reasons I left the Presbyterian Church was for this very reason; traditions dying and all that...but that's not for here.

The church my mother attended in her Iowa hometown had a dominie that wore a "dog collar" as part of his clerical rig. The Rev. Flint was from Canada originally, and very traditional.
