Why We Wear Veils and Why You Should Too!!!!

[@JesusIScalling777]

I'm a Christian, and the Lord is showing me to start covering or veiling even when I leave my house because I pray throughout the day a lot. It is a good practice.

I've been kinda praying on that. Even though I still wear pants for a lot of activities. I've been looking for less obvious and extravagant coverings for every day.

Would this be okay for me to do as a non catholic Protestant Christian?

[@donb2063]

I’m a man in my 50s who went to my first TLM yesterday. I’ve only ever done NO and didn’t realize till I walked in that catholic women ever wore veils. I was amazed and really did tear up how lovely and reverent you ladies look. Most also wore plain dresses to create the modest chaste look. I think you do it for yourself and your relationship with Jesus during the mass but as a man know that we benefit too as it helps to regulate the two sexes showing us we are different but complementary. For all women and girls having doubts please banish them and wear your veil with joy and humbleness before God.

[@jean6061]

I"m returning to the Catholic Church after five years in a conservative Mennonite church. As a Mennonite, women wear head coverings all the time because God is present with us all the time. I like that very much, so I wear a head covering for daily use and a chapel veil for Mass. If anyone asks why I wear a veil, I tell them it reminds me that I'm not alone, that God has me covered! And it truly is a constant reminder to me that God is in control, not just me.

[@gardenappreciation6932]

I have been confronted by parishioners telling me that I was lowering myself below men. I wear it to honor GOD and Christ. It also felt nice to distinguish myself as a woman. I don't need to compete with men. I also discovered that having that covering gave me a sense of privacy when I pray, allowing me to have some spiritual intimacy with The Lord when I pray. I do feel awkward when people stare at me, so I will usually give a friendly smile, sometimes with a greeting, causing them to look away or greet me awkwardly. I'm very aware of people so it reminds me to leave my “personal observations”outside the threshold of the church before entering, opening my heart to God. It does function as a tool, sometimes. I'm happy to hear some of the same thoughts from two young ladies. It is beautiful. Keep it up. ❤️

[@anneschofield9726]

I wear a veil to honor Our Lord. The veil is a grace received; or the understanding of it.

What you do is between you and God. If others are trying to control you, whether it is other parishioners or even a pastor, kindly tell them to eff off. Or if thats too much, tell them that's it's between you and God, NO ONE ELSE.

My nona was a catholic woman and always went to church. When she did she would veil. I want to be like her and to do what I believe God is telling me to do. What other people think of me is their business and none of mine, I shouldn't let their opinions and cruelness ruin my prayer and dreams.

[@lynnraia3490]

It took me a while to veil. I felt like I would be seen as trying to be "holier than thou". Hardly anyone wears a veil at our cathedral. Also, I felt like I was drawing attention to myself, which is the opposite of what I wanted to do. I thought I looked stupid since the veil didn't match any of my clothes. I struggled for about 3 years. I stuck with it and was encouraged by other women who told me not to let the devil deceive me. I have some other reasons that God revealed to me as well, after much prayer that have to do with the shape of our bodies, our husband priests and more. I am finally comfortable wearing mine and feel strange without it in the church. I am grateful to God for revealing truths to me about it. It is a sign of honor, not my submission to my husband. It is greatly misunderstood, which was the devil's plan. Thank you for your video! You are amazing women!

[@ROSIE112109]

Thank you for sharing your experience bc that's exactly how I feel. A previous priest at our church said that by (me) people kneeling to receive the Eucharist was to bring attention to oneself. Thank God he's no longer our priest and just like you I had the call and I've praying to God to give me the courage to vail & feel comfortable & not single out. May God bless you all for been our support to those who still have not been able to veil🙏🕊

I was afraid of this at first as well.

I have been asked about my veil at church and a few women there have been inspired by it. I am blessed of the Lord my Saviors. He is so good to His.

Yep amen to that. I've been covering for a few years now when I pray and go to church, and other times as well. I feel so calm and peaceful when I cover my head. I will pass on a bit of what I know from scripture, and hopefully it will helps anyone?🤷‍♀️ 1 Cor 11 makes it pretty clear that a woman should cover or veil her head in public worship. The word for covering in 1 Corthians 11:4, 5,6,7, 13, is the word, katakalýptō, from katá, "down, and kalýptō, "to cover"-cover down, to make appropriate (complete), i.e. to wear a veil. It is the same word used for the veil that separated the Holy of holies from the priests. But only in vrs 15, where Paul is giving an example from nature is a different word used, "but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering." This is different word from the others for "cover"= "peribolaion," that which is thrown around or a mantel that can be thrown around (As in when a women tosses or throws her hair around). Cover in the first few verses of 1 Cor 11, should really be translated veil. This is where we get the English saying, "Let your hair down." Becuase during the "sexual revolution" women let there hair down out of thier buns, uncovered their hair and shook it back and forth. Up until only the last two generations woman covered in Church. All of our grandmothers would have covered in church. This is why the Hutterites, Mennonites, Amish, the orthodox churches, some Catholics, a lot of African tribes, and Messiniac Beleivers, etc still cover their hair. Here's some verses in the OT about head covering. Hope these help. Isaiah 47:1-2. Come down and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans! For you shall no more be called tender and delicate. Take the millstones and grind flour, "put off your veil", strip off your robe, uncover your legs, pass through the rivers. (So as we can see, even virgins were to keep their heads covered and save their hair for their husbands. Otherwise it is like they are showing all their nakedness). Numbers 5:18. Then the priest shall stand the woman before the LORD, "uncover the woman’s head," and put the offering for remembering in her hands, which is the grain offering of jealousy. And the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that brings a curse. Also Genesis 20:16 says in the Hebrew Then to Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; indeed this is "a covering for her eyes" (to put back on her wedding covering) you before all who are with you and before everybody.” Thus she was rebuked. From what I understand In Genesis 24:65. Rebekah covers herself because the bridal price has already been paid. 2 vrs later we see Isaac take Rebekah bright away into his tent. There was no wedding ceremony. Her covering herself was an outward show of her marriage to Isaac. Since they were married he was allowed to take her right away into his tent and "uncover" her.

[@missioncreekfarm7715]

I was actually mocked when I went to a mass years ago and wore a veil. I had grown up Roman Catholic, and hadn't step foot in a Catholic church in decades. I am born again and spirit filled, and I like to wear a veil when I pray. Some call them a prayer shawl, but I pull it up onto my head. You are right. I helps you focus.

As a young woman I always wanted to wear a head covering but I often had people tell me that it was weird; Because I really wanted to cover my head especially in holy mass i decided to let my hair grow long.

It took two years of discernment before I took the leap. I wanted to make sure that, if I believed in this devotion, it would be a lifelong commitment, not a passing fad. When I wore the veil the first time, it was so perfect. There was no question that this was the right thing for me

Excellent video! I am 70 yrs.old and veiled as a child but after Vatican II we just stopped veiling. About 15 yrs ago I started veiling during my weekly Adoration hour. After a few months I knew that I needed to veil at Mass. I was attending a Novus Ordo mass and was distracted with noise,clapping and even the music. As I put on my veil when I entered the Church I would pray and ask Our Blessed Mother to help me stay focused on Jesus. My husband and I had been parishioners at the same Church for 40 plus yrs and only one other lady besides me was veiling. About five yrs.ago I found the Latin Mass! Almost all the ladies veil and the beautiful Sacred reverence for Jesus is so evident when we enter.

[@jameswilliamson4028]

God does not concern himself with the appearance of others and our Lord and savior commands us not to judge by the outward appearance, for what is most important in God's eyes is the condition of the heart. Traditions were made up by men and Paul, who wrote Corinthians, was converted to Christ without actually walking with Christ, and this is the same man conformed to the traditions of his time, who pursued to kill the community of people that he joined after converting to Jesus Christ. We need to focus on following the Lord's commands and not let traditions take us off of the path of righteousness in our walk with the Lord, for it is more important to obey the ccommandments given to us by almighty God, more than it is following the traditions of men, again, the Lord tells us in many ways that he judges not by the outward appearance in the ways that men do, and what's most important is the condition of our heart. Certainly there is nothing wrong with wearing coverings of the head or face however, no one sins in God's eyes if they attend a building structure full of individuals gathering in the name of the Lord to give him praise and Glory if the individual chooses to sit there without a covering for the face or head. The Lord promises by his own words that he will not judge us by the outward appearance whether we appear in a church with, or without, a covering, he doesn't care about that kind of nonsense as men do, his only concern is how true our hearts are towards him. (Scriptures about the heart and judging by outward appearance) Jeremiah 17:10, 1 Samuel 16:7, John 7:24.

[@jameswilliamson4028]

@@mpkropf5062 the most important thing for us to do is to learn the Commandments of Our Lord and keep them, not the commencements of men. Traditions are fine whether it be for religious purposes or for Thanksgiving Day as celebration as we sit around the table to eat but there is no commandment directly from our Lord telling women that they need to wear veils or coverings. Jesus and his words are the standard of which we all need to live by today. The words of Our Lord, his very spoken words is what we need to live by. You have to remember that much scripture of old are simply written by men who believe they hear the words within them and determine they are from the Lord while in the times of their suffering living without the luxury of modern medicine such as we have today no way for us to really know what kind of State of Mind they've been in physically during their times whether or not they had problems with an underactive thyroid for example that would drain their energy and affect their mind heart and health, so there are many considerations to consider when it comes to the ways of the times of old and the conditions that were then and as the word of God tells us all scripture is God breathed and open for interpretation as it says in the holy word of God. We have to remember not to make traditions of the church priority but make the Commandments of God, Jesus Christ the number one priority in our lives obeying the commands he has given us and yes there are many interpretations of the Apostles in their own text in much of the things written down according to memory as they lived their life by candlelight living with the health conditions that they were in without the luxury of being able to pop a pill when if they feel lousy such as were able to do today and simply because they had traditions of Their Own doesn't mean that is a tradition that we need to follow today unless Jesus Christ himself spoke the words of such for us to follow and you have to weigh what's most important as to whether or not it's right in God's sight to follow the traditions of men and their religious ways of honoring God, or is it most important to follow the ways of God concerning his Commandments and spoken words through his holy son Jesus Christ and that's what it was all about and the whole reason for Jesus coming to the world to show God to be with us and while it is not impossible for men of old to hear God's voice and write it down so that we can call it scripture, and while it is possible for the Holy Spirit to dwell within us to lead us and guide us in all of our ways as we listen to the inner voice, you always have to keep an open mind and remember that all the scripture text that we have was given to us and found in broken pieces as we have been burdened with the task through the work of Scholars to put the pieces of the broken text together and insert words for proper interpretation such as the italic words that you see in the pages of the written word, italic words inserted to help us understand what was written for much of the written word is difficult to understand hence the reason for Scholars to add words of interpretation in the form of italic to help us better understand such as the story with David and the mentioning of the tree that he saw in his dream, there is no actual mention of the tree in one particular portion of part of the three verses concerning the story of David's dream, but had to be interpreted and inserted in italic form for our better understanding according to the scholars so that it would be understood as in reference to a later spoken portion of a tree in the particular verse and when you read of David's dream interpretation, you will notice in your readings that a tree is mentioned later in the verses but not in the beginning but the word tree had to be inserted with italic lettering so that it would make better sense for us to have proper interpretation which is the way the scholars have made it to be, so we cannot just simply pull things out of context when there is so much more to understand. But the most important thing that we need to do daily is remember the Commandments given to us by Jesus Christ Our Lord and follow them and focus our attention on those Commandments and keep them.

It is horrible to realize that once roman catholic priests see a grain of orthodoxy they shut down completely. They will not affect my relationship with Jesus Christ of Nazareth and I will not allow for these outbursts to affect my Salvation. I just forgive and continue on; it helps that I attend a Bible Study every Friday and I read the Bible constantly. I begin to wear my veil the moment I renewed my relationship with Christ.

I started veiling when I was about 20 years old and I was always the ONLY woman veiling. I got a lot of weird looks from people because I was at novis ordo. I actually noticed that older women who had veiled as children before Vatican II were the ones who gave me the weirdest looks for some reason. I had a woman in her 90s mockingly call me "Madonna" and scoff at me. I eventually met my husband who speaks Latin and we started attending traditional Latin mass and I have not attended Novis Ordo since. I am a big believer in veiling and don't understand why there is such judgement around it outside of Latin mass. Just because I got weird looks doesn't mean that stopped me. I always cover my hair before entering a Catholic church, no exception. That is my choice. I think some people think I am judging them for not covering but that is so not true. Veiling is such a hot button topic which is kind of strange to me as someone who just feels called to it.

[@joannhacker9120]

@Bok Choy I actually had that spirit in a Calvinist church. It was brought up at a women’s Bible meeting. I was veiled and a few of the women said it was not necessary unless you want to follow laws. I said nothing but felt so out of place. I now go to a Norvus Ordo Catholic church and there are only a few of us that veil but I have not felt any weird looks. It seems more accepted in Latin Catholic Church because when I was able to go a Latin mass all but one women was veiled. Either way I feel more accepted in the Catholic Church. But that is not the reason I veil, I veil for the Lord. I attend the Catholic Church for the the real presence of the Lord in the Eucharist. Which was only a symbol in the Calvinist church. Please do not be afraid to join the Catholic Church it has a deep beautiful history. Watch conversion stories on EWTN Scott Hahn and Keith Nester are my favorite.

[@joannajett2524]

(You wear the veil on the inside, or something like that; we speak Spanish hehe) and that was the end of it.. that made me think that I would be perceived as pretentious or something. But now it's back.. and KZbin suggested me this video and I feel that warming feeling in my heart. The truth is, I won't be redeemed by any of the people who might look at me weirdly, it's a matter between Jesus Christ and me! ❤ Thank you for this

This is one of the best videos I've ever seen on veiling, you both have inspired me to start wearing a veil too! I've worn one to Mass for the past month now and have found that there has been way less distraction at Mass, and more focus on the Eucharist. It is such a wonderful tool to guide my heart to Jesus. I've also found that it has helped me become and want to become more intentional at Mass. In preparing for Mass by making sure I have my veil, I am also reminded to pray before Mass to ready my heart to receive Jesus as well. Wearing a veil hasn't just helped me not to daydream at Mass, it has helped me become more focused on what is really happening during the Mass, and to become hyperaware of His presence since the whole reason why I am wearing a veil is because He truly is present in the Eucharist. Wearing a veil has only pointed to Love. :) I had been scared to wear a veil too, holding onto one for over a year, but after hearing your stories and trying again for myself, I can see the fruits of wearing a veil, and they are so many. This is such a great sacramental and I never knew! Thank you for sharing your stories, thank you for spreading joy and inspiration! I hope you make many more videos soon! God bless you!

What I missed during my church years as a youth, about 50 years ago, was the tradition of women, including my mom, wearing veils to church.

[@nanm2398]

Upbeat & informative. Well done young ladies! I, old-lady-convert of ~6 years, began veiling ~4 years ago when we attended a NO parish. I laughed at your '"I didn't realize it was a partisan issue," remark. That's so true! When I first veiled, I got 'the looks!" but ignored the stares & comments & focused on humility & devotion to Christ. Good thing I did: a few months after I began veiling, several men told hubby that their wives wanted to veil but were too afraid. So, some stares were from women trying to summon courage, and others from women who thought the veil was attention-seeking - which is often code for: your veil threatens my 'flip-flop/short-skirt/blue jean/leggings' mentality. We are now at a parish where ~1/3 the females veil, which is such a beautiful sight to behold, especially with the little ones! Was unaware about the black/white info & will factor that in. In addition to veils (I have a black & a white), I love to wear scarves in neutral or modest colors. I think it's the influence of some Polish ancestry. I asked our priest about it & he said it was perfectly fine as long as it wasn't some wild pattern or loud color. FWIW, being older, I associate black w/ mourning (I wish we'd bring back that dress/custom.) LOL @ Adrian. I especially liked the mention of veiling things that are holy & sacred - the ark, Christ's body, the tabernacle, the chalice, et al to protect their dignity. LOVELY POINT!

I started veiling when I started going to the TLM last year. There were a few ladies and girls who wore a veil at my past NO parish. To my shame, I was a chicken about veiling because I heard rude comments made about them (mainly by people over 65). Re: veil colors... I am a homeschooling mom of six children in their teens and twenties. I have also been divorced for 12 years and received an declaration of nullity almost 10 years ago. I fit into *no* neat tidy boxes, so I don't wear white or black. I have brown and gray veils, which correspond with my greying brunette hair 😂 As a convert I was exposed to Christian women who wore different types of "head coverings" before I was Catholic, so I had an understanding of the Scriptural foundations. What really convinced me was the phrase from 1 Cor. 11, "because of the angels." The angels are there at Mass. No exceptions to that.

[@mom4christ191]

Yay. I've been covering for a few years now when I pray and go to church, and other times as well. I feel so calm and peaceful when I cover my head. I will pass on a bit of what I know from scripture, and hopefully it will helps anyone?🤷‍♀️ 1 Cor 11 makes it pretty clear that a woman should cover or veil her head in public worship. The word for covering in 1 Corthians 11:4, 5,6,7, 13, is the word, katakalýptō, from katá, "down, and kalýptō, "to cover"-cover down, to make appropriate (complete), i.e. to wear a veil. It is the same word used for the veil that separated the Holy of holies from the priests. But only in vrs 15, where Paul is giving an example from nature is a different word used, "but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering." This is different word from the others for "cover"= "peribolaion," that which is thrown around or a mantel that can be thrown around (As in when a women tosses or throws her hair around). Cover in the first few verses of 1 Cor 11, should really be translated veil. This is where we get the English saying, "Let your hair down." Becuase during the "sexual revolution" women let there hair down out of thier buns, uncovered their hair and shook it back and forth. Up until only the last two generations woman covered in Church. All of our grandmothers would have covered in church. This is why the Hutterites, Mennonites, Amish, the orthodox churches, some Catholics, a lot of African tribes, and Messiniac Beleivers, etc still cover their hair. Here's some verses in the OT about head covering. Hope these help. Isaiah 47:1-2. Come down and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans! For you shall no more be called tender and delicate. Take the millstones and grind flour, "put off your veil", strip off your robe, uncover your legs, pass through the rivers. (So as we can see, even virgins were to keep their heads covered and save their hair for their husbands. Otherwise it is like they are showing all their nakedness). Numbers 5:18. Then the priest shall stand the woman before the LORD, "uncover the woman’s head," and put the offering for remembering in her hands, which is the grain offering of jealousy. And the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that brings a curse. Also Genesis 20:16 says in the Hebrew Then to Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; indeed this is "a covering for her eyes" (to put back on her wedding covering) you before all who are with you and before everybody.” Thus she was rebuked. From what I understand In Genesis 24:65. Rebekah covers herself because the bridal price has already been paid. 2 vrs later we see Isaac take Rebekah bright away into his tent. There was no wedding ceremony. Her covering herself was an outward show of her marriage to Isaac. Since they were married he was allowed to take her right away into his tent and "uncover" her.

At 18 I met the love of my life who is actually Hindu by nature but has Christian beliefs. Anyways I found out we were pregnant when I was 19. I had a traumatic birth, I had a complete placenta abruption while being induced. She came out, with no pulse, no cry, no blood in her cord. She spent the first 3 days on a ventilator, multiple blood and plasma transfusions. Her neonatologist said she had no explanation of why my baby survived. I was so dumbfounded and didn't know what to do, I couldn't even think let alone pray. Im now 18m postpartum and I cant wait to have my daughter baptized. Im nervous to come back to church, I need to confess first before I can come back to mass. I feel like I owe it to God to veil, he saved my daughters life.

Great video! I started veiling when preparing for the Sacrament Of Marriage last year. I was in search of a veil for my wedding and as I started to look at simple veils it led me down a path of learning more about the significance of actually wearing a veil to mass. I loved the beauty, the history and the reverence I also felt. As I started to slowly wear to mass, in the beginning, I did feel uncomfortable but only because the majority of women do not wear veils and i definitely did not want to be a center of attention. However, as I started to practice wearing more, I realized the deep spiritual peace I felt while wearing in mass. I realized how it did help block out peripheral vision allowing me to keep focus on prayer, intentions, and most importantly the Holy Mass. Talk about stepping up your prayers! The practice of veiling is such a beautiful experience also connecting us to Mother Mary with the love and protection she gives us all! Today I love veiling and am happy to see a few more women wearing veils in mass! Great video and Thank You! Erica from San Antonio Texas ❤️🙏God Bless

I’ve been veiling for probably about 7 years but I can’t remember for sure. When I first started veiling, it was at the Novus Ordo Mass and then eventually the Latin Mass. I felt more out of place wearing the veil at the Novus Ordo Mass and was really self conscious. Now, all these years later, when I go to the Novus Ordo for daily Mass I don’t even think about it. All of my nerves about it back in the day are gone. I think it’s such a beautiful tradition.

Even at our tender age we knew it was right. Used to wear it all the time, but now just wear it for church. One perk I like is I get to wear the long beautiful veils where is the protostant we just wore small ones because those alone caused a fuss. But I have never cared what people thought in that regards, I am going to do what is right. May I add 2 points to yours? #1 there is also the verse in 2 Corinthians 11 about the veil being a sign to the angels (I've heard it said like the blood on the mantel during passover). Something special for us ladies. #2 is what I learned since looking into Catholicism, which you kind of touched on. Like you said we veil because we are viewed as sacred. As you said mystical, I've heard it also said it is because we can hold life within us, making us that mystical special. But anyway I love running across ladies about my age (I'm 27) who veil because I don't know but 1 who does and I've never talked to her (it is a parish I sometimes visit).

As far as I remember, the veil became no longer required under penalty of sin, but, as that is the absolute lowest requirement to fulfil, it was still greatly encouraged by the Church. I think poor Catechesis for many decades, and.. a certain generation that started to rip off veils and gut out parishes as 'freedom' and 'progress' are the reasons many people began to: do nothing, then forgot about it, then got confused, and now it's even seen as wrong by many, especially my generation and older. It's such a blessing to see God's proof that He can shine His truth to anyone in any generation 🙏 I also love the returning to modesty of many young men & women today 👏

I recently tried to wear head coverings this year and my goal is to get over my fears of people looking at me funny and wear it full time! I am Christian woman and I have done a lot of research on head coverings and how it really used to be such a common thing up until feminism unfortunately. I think it’s more about modesty, showing your approval of gender roles, being submissive to your husband and doing what most women did for thousands of years until feminism destroyed everything. Should you wear it at church? Absolutely! All the time? Not totally necessary but I think should be highly encouraged. That is my opinion!

The priest asked me to let her borrow my veil. So was blessed by the Holy Water and Holy Spirit. I wore it during mass but not at every mass because I feel judged and I'm the only young Catholic who wears a veil in our Parish. I can see my friend a little saddened whenever I'm not wearing it and he asks why I'm not wearing it and I give him lots of excuses. I'll try my best to wear at all times (every mass) from now on.

It is encouraging to see such insight and courage of conviction; moral courage being a fruit of the third sorrowful mystery of the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

It is not a statement about anyone else’s journey toward sanctity. I invite those who make disparaging remarks or hold such thoughts to spend some time before the Blessed Sacrament in listen-only mode. A casual reading of but a few of the lives of the Saints will inform you rather quickly that you are in good company when others are attacking your faith practices. In His Peace

I cannot get over how cute your guys are! You are an inspiration! 💖

[@EmilyEsserman]

Thanks Michelle, you made our day!

I'm a Muslim woman who wears hijab. It's nice to see women who value religion, modesty, and spiritual focus. People try to treat Muslim women like we're doing something insane when we cover. But uncovering and nudity is the true insanity. Thank you for speaking up. I invite you to read a free English copy of the Quran, translated by Saheeh International. You'll see so many similarities & so many new things too. Like Chapter Maryam, Chapter Noah, Chapter Joseph, Chapter The Women, Chapter The Jinn (genies), Chapter Read! ... etc. Yes, read! This knowledge is power. 💝

I started veiling about 6 years ago. Carried it in my purse for a long time before I finally put it in. I remember my grandmother, great aunts and even my mom wearing it when I was very young. But what made me think about it was a friend who is a Catholic convert. She wore it and from her example I started thinking about it and remembering the way it was. Took me awhile to actually wear it because not many wore it at my parish. Then I put it on and from the first moment it felt right and it made me concentrate on the mass more. I’ll never go back to an uncovered head.

Yes have some beautiful ones from Amazon after a visit Spain and love the reverence it brings

[@annw.3133]

Thank you so much for this beautiful share🙏. I do see some senior ladies wear veils. I do love your explanation of our Catholic tradition of love & respect to Holiness🙏 I definitely look forward to starting this beautiful symbol in our church. Thank you🙏💗✝️

[@JCSBP0GI]

My mom used to wear veil but now no women in our church wearing veil. I hope that catholic women wear back their weil as a sign of dignity .

[@sabrinavasquez1574]

How interesting! I know many churches don't veil but mine personally (of the Christian Evangelical denomination), us women have always been required to wear a church veil when in church and especially during prayer. Think similar to the one Jackie Kennedy was wearing in that photo, only the length is a little shorter. I didn't realize most churches didn't practice this anymore until I was older because I've been raised in this manner my whole life! It's part of our little ritual in preparing to go to church and I would feel practically naked without one lol! I actually really like wearing a veil because it shows our respect, our modesty, our humility and it's another way to distinguish us from the men in my opinion. Our veils actually come in every color too, to match our clothes of the day! And another thing, our church encourages formal dress for men and women, especially during Sundays which I appreciate as well because we are in a holy place and should conduct and clothe ourselves accordingly. No flip flops and board shorts or mini dresses😅

[@EmilyEsserman]

Thanks for sharing Sabrina, God bless you!

[@kellycarlson1716]

I’m not Catholic , but a non denom, Christian and decided last Sunday to cover my head. What a difference! I felt more at peace and more focused. I was studying chapter 11 of 1 Corinthians as well . I’ve always thought about this for many years, and FINALLY just said” okay , here it goes!” This would be great to see this tradition become common place. ( because of the 👼 angels!) ♥️♥️♥️

[@courtneyprice2210]

That’s my church! I’m celebrating my confirmation at the Easter vigil this year & have been contemplating veiling for the vigil.

[@mabelalmanzar439]

Hey thanks for making this video and sharing . My church will be having an exhibition of catholic relics in about two weeks “treasures of the church” I have this strong calling to veil and I wasn’t sure if to wear one or not. For being in such holy presence I think my choice is made after watching this .

[@marfua76]

I’m star wearing veils last week and I love it. Thank you for saw me this video.

[@mom4christ191]

Awesome. Keep at it. I've been covering for a few years now when I pray and go to church, and other times as well. I feel so calm and peaceful when I cover my head. I will pass on a bit of what I know from scripture, and hopefully it will helps anyone?🤷‍♀️ 1 Cor 11 makes it pretty clear that a woman should cover or veil her head in public worship. The word for covering in 1 Corthians 11:4, 5,6,7, 13, is the word, katakalýptō, from katá, "down, and kalýptō, "to cover"-cover down, to make appropriate (complete), i.e. to wear a veil. It is the same word used for the veil that separated the Holy of holies from the priests. But only in vrs 15, where Paul is giving an example from nature is a different word used, "but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering." This is different word from the others for "cover"= "peribolaion," that which is thrown around or a mantel that can be thrown around (As in when a women tosses or throws her hair around). Cover in the first few verses of 1 Cor 11, should really be translated veil. This is where we get the English saying, "Let your hair down." Becuase during the "sexual revolution" women let there hair down out of thier buns, uncovered their hair and shook it back and forth. Up until only the last two generations woman covered in Church. All of our grandmothers would have covered in church. This is why the Hutterites, Mennonites, Amish, the orthodox churches, some Catholics, a lot of African tribes, and Messiniac Beleivers, etc still cover their hair. Here's some verses in the OT about head covering. Hope these help. Isaiah 47:1-2. Come down and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans! For you shall no more be called tender and delicate. Take the millstones and grind flour, "put off your veil", strip off your robe, uncover your legs, pass through the rivers. (So as we can see, even virgins were to keep their heads covered and save their hair for their husbands. Otherwise it is like they are showing all their nakedness). Numbers 5:18. Then the priest shall stand the woman before the LORD, "uncover the woman’s head," and put the offering for remembering in her hands, which is the grain offering of jealousy. And the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that brings a curse. Also Genesis 20:16 says in the Hebrew Then to Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; indeed this is "a covering for her eyes" (to put back on her wedding covering) you before all who are with you and before everybody.” Thus she was rebuked. From what I understand In Genesis 24:65. Rebekah covers herself because the bridal price has already been paid. 2 vrs later we see Isaac take Rebekah bright away into his tent. There was no wedding ceremony. Her covering herself was an outward show of her marriage to Isaac. Since they were married he was allowed to take her right away into his tent and "uncover" her.

[@adrianfonseca]

This is the best video yet! I like your friend you should have her on more often!!!

[@randomppl8245]

This should trend to the millennials nowadays!!💜 Amen

[@EmilyEsserman]

I hope so too!

[@angelalong6740]

I started veiling on Mother's Day several years ago. I agree with your reasons to veil. It keeps us focused. My veil is usually black with colors woven in.

[@ohthankg-dforthebourgeoisi9800]

People miss how St. Paul was comparing men to Christ, that’s why they were NOT praying with their heads covered. This means women are representing the “bride “ or the church. Traditional Jewish men prayed with their heads covered. So this is a big change for men. It really wasn’t for women.

[@pascalinakabiaru3437]

Thanks it's a great video I used to veil a for a few months last year then I stopped I guess I was not strong enough not to mention the stares. I attend Novus Mass hardly anyone veils very few do as we don't have TLM am from Nairobi Kenya but it is a great inspiration as I have been thinking of going back to the habit. I loved it cause I would concentrate more and I would tell myself am doing it to imitate Mother Mary our Model and in honour and reverence of Jesus Our Lord. Also I must mention years ago I stopped wearing trousers in Church as I would feel like am totally naked and very uncomfortable so my next step is wearing the veil.

[@EmilyEsserman]

Thank you for your courage and God bless you!

[@kimdkus]

I’m evangelical and I wish I could veil at my church. I get a sense of security when I pray veiled.

[@sabinebonschab352]

Me too in an evangelical church. And you can do it. Be blessed.

[@peachy_talisman]

I've recently just converted to Catholicism and I was wondering if everyday veiling was a thing among Christians aswell. I'm really glad it is because I really love the modesty and comfort it gives me. thank you for making this ♥️

[@lizbethb.5103]

Today is my first time wearing a veil, I am going to a Latin mass for the first time in years. I thank God for not feeling as subconscious about it as I thought I was going to feel. 🙏

[@classicFASHIONISTA]

At my old Novus Ordo parish, I was one of only about ten women who veiled in the congregation of 5,000 families!

[@EmilyEsserman]

Thank you for your courage! Maybe you inspired another woman to veil!

[@kryceksangel]

I wear a veil to TLM and regular masses Almost every woman who attends TLM wears a veil now. I usually see one or two other women in a veil at daily mass

[@bootz0409]

An exceptional vid on a touchy topic. I will send it to my daughter. Beautifully presented. A real credit to you both. And a nice touch with the guy popping up from behind the couch! Lol 😁

[@EmilyEsserman]

Thank you so much, God love you!

[@MaximinaD.]

I have been contemplating to using a veil, but I always thought that it is when we are so incredibly holy! I always feel like I am not ready enough, it doesn’t matter how many rosary I pray, how many novena I do! I even saw Jesus one afternoon while driving and still feel that I am not ready! Also, I think in a way I don’t want to bring attention towards me! So, now I am seriously contemplating that idea bc I have problems focusing. Hopefully It will make a difference while in the church w my concentration in God !

[@lorieschenck6221]

Ladies! You are so fun, thank you for this video. I grew up wearing a veil and I really miss it. I was taught to place it in the vestibule to prepare for Mass. I miss it, honestly, but I am intimidated by the thought of calling attention to myself. How did you overcome this challenge?

[@jennsar3491]

I was very intimidated at first too. I felt the calling to vail for about a year before I started veiling. I veil because of my convictions and the Lords presents. I was most intimidated because I wasn’t sure my husband would like it or want me to veil. But I was so surprised with his reaction. He has encouraged us and said how pretty we look for the Lord. Pray about veiling. You don’t veil for anyone but Jesus. It is not for show or attention. I’m very thankful I took the step. Not being able to go to Mass really helped me. I veiled for the first time when I was able to go back to Mass in person again. Hope this helps you. I’ll be praying for you. Jesus I trust in You.

[@EmilyEsserman]

Hi Lorie! Some women like to ease into veiling by wearing it to Adoration or private prayer when alone in the church. You can also sit in the back of the church during Mass until you feel comfortable wearing it. God bless you! ♥️

[@gardenappreciation6932]

You just need to remember that you are not doing it for those people, if they are being rude. There will always be someone who doesn't understand it's meaning. Just do it with your heart and leave the rest to The Lord.

[@firemaiden]

I’m an introvert, plus a novus ordo priest discouraged me when I asked about doing it for lent. Years later, I ended up at a traditional Latin mass. Most veil. It is beautiful. Can’t go back.

[@angels5320]

Lorie, don't be shy I still wear my chapel veil for prayer and Mass. Never really understood why it suddenly stopped. All the best to you!
