The Fit Fearless and Faithful Mom- Audrey Horn I had been searching knowing I needed something more. Something I hadn’t been getting from my baptist church I grew up in.
I'm not even a Catholic in full communion and I veil at Mass. I can't even consider doing otherwise!! I was going to enter the church, but stopped to put my veil on, and saw a little girl walking past me with her mother. The mother minded her own business, but the little girl stared at me. I recognized the look in her eyes. It's the same look I had when I saw pictures of beautiful little girls dressed in white for First Communion. I wanted that so badly, but I was removed from Catholicism as a preschooler and raised anti-Catholic Pentecostal. That little girl wants to veil, and I hope some day she does.
I was called to veil five years ago. Last Sunday, for the first time, I forgot my veil, and I felt absolutely naked. When I got home the first thing I did was put a veil in my purse so that would never happen again.
I grew up Open (Plymouth) Brethren in New Zealand, a protestant evangelical group of believers. We wore head coverings at every Sunday meeting service all through my growing up years. Have started doing it again in the last year or so more and more. ❤
Beautiful video. I would love to vail but also feel intimidated because of the same reasons you had. But funny, lately I feel the holy spirit calling me to only wear dress' / skirts. I've been doing this for almost two weeks now and stangly ( in a good way).. I feel closer to God. Thank God He is patient with us lol. God bless
Yep. I agree with the skirts and dresses. I feel even more feminine, put together and as they say, "less... is more" haha. I'll be praying for your decision. 🙂
I've been feeling called to veil too. It started by searching for "prayer clothing" online to find what I picture people wearing in Dubai. It would have just been for the home. But then I realized I loved the idea of detaching from my ego and feeling more intimate with the Lord. I have been devoted to Mary too and really feel compelled to stop distracting men in any way I can. It really sucks that veiling could draw unwanted attention. I am still taking Catechism classes and not fully Catholic yet, and I don't want to be seen as being hypervigilant, overzealous, attention-seeking, culture-stealing, ignorant... it really has just become a natural inclination like you are explaining. Like it just ends up making sense to veil myself... it is a beautiful thing. Precious and sadly very rare it seems. Thank you for this video :)
Don't let the negative influence, looks, and even your own thoughts (most of the time, negative thoughts are the whisper from the evil one who doesn't want us to grow closer to our lord JESUS CRIST) I just posted information about why we should veil .. look for it, I hope it will reassure you to keep walking in the light of our Heavenly Father. ❤👰♂️👍
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch. I really appreciate it a lot. :) That's wonderful that you purchased a second veil. My husband loves when I wear my blue one. :)
I’m from California and at my parish a few women wear veils and it did start slowly becoming more often I also thought it was becoming popular to wear a veil
I started veiling, slowly with a wide head band, then a lacy head wraps, you tie on. Now Im veiling with a regular veil. I cannot think of ever not veiling, now.Humbled and blessed. My mind and heart are helped by respect in our Real Presence of Jesus, Mary Angel's and saints.
I was always interested in the beautiful tradition of ceiling. While I did think of it, I also was nervous about drawing attention to myself or would others think I was trying to be better then them. Fast forward to years the thought of it still came back and forth. Just like you mentioned that sometimes what we think and what God thinks meet in the middle. Then about two years later while I was at Home Depot waiting on my husband, it was a week before Lent and I get an email from Veils by Lily (I had subscribed two years before but their emails would usually go to my other email), and it said “Thinking about veiling? Now is the time.” So I realized hmm maybe this is it, I clicked it and ordered my first veil. It’s been a few years and I am still veiling plus my two teen daughters have started as well.
I’m feeling like I being called to wear one. But I’m definitely buying them for my girls who receive their first holy communion this spring. Perhaps I will do it and join them. ☺️♥️
Hi! I’m a new subscriber here. I can here originally from your homeschooling video but was excited to find out about your faith as well. I’m a Muslim homeschooling mama and I have a Catholic brother. I love what you share about veiling ❤
For those who want to veil and feel intimidated, try going to the Traditional Latin Mass. There, most women and girls veil. Lots of young women veil. When I was going to the Novus Ordo, I felt that same way as you. Coming to the TLM though, it's just so natural to wear dresses, veils, to dress in our "Sunday best". It makes the whole day holy, imo.
Hi :) New to your channel...I am a catholic in FL..feel. calling to veil...was actually born on day of immaculate conception....I feel a calling to veil because things in my heart have been changing and have felt holy spirit lead me to this.......but nobody in my church veils...I used to see one lady years ago...and our church has about 1200 people or so.......I am at almost 2 years of asking for courage and last year I was gifted one out of the blue... while in a 3 day..retreat. ..coincidence hehe...dont believe in coincidences.....thanks for encouraging me.....today I prayed with my veil from home....baby steps
Hey there! Welcome to my channel! How beautiful that you were born on the Immaculate Conception! and yes! I don't believe in coincidences either. Keep taking those baby steps. It's something that's not "of the norm", but I think, even after this whole quarantining period, we'll see a resurgence of it in many. I'll be praying for you. God Bless friend!
It’s sad how it takes so much courage to follow the basic disciplines of our faith: veiling, communion on the tongue, reverence, etc. These used to be standard disciplines that didn’t take any extraordinary thought, but so much has changed. I pray that the Novus Ordo can become more reverent. I’ve been wearing a veil at Mass for a year now after a similar inspiration, but there’s no trend starting. Only a few ladies do it. There are 5,000 families at my parish so that may be one reason why.
I can relate, I started to wear a veil in July of 2023 (yes, I am a newbie!). I bought my first veil during our family vacation at EWTN ... I was at one of the shops just looking, and I had an urgent feeling that I should buy a veil before going to visit the Holy Eucharist, so I picked one. I turned around to find my daughters looking at me (mind you, they are teenagers), so we all got veils, and that is how my family started to wear veils for mass. Did we feel odd, yes. However, we understood that wearing a veil is not about us.. it's all for JESUS, and that's all it matters. ✝️🙏🏻 Presently, I have noticed that more ladies have started to wear veils during mass 🤗 Yaaaay!! Most recently, I was approached by a church member who asked me where she could buy a veil.. So, let's continue wearing our veils to mass.
Technically women wear the darker colors and the girls wear the lighter colors yes you're correct on the traditional of the black and the white but when it comes to veiling what I have found is that the women wear darker colors so the light blue to me would be more for your daughter and a navy blue would be better for you that's my personal opinion but everybody does what they want to do when it comes to veiling.
Hello, so nice to hear your journey and reasons. I am also wearing a veil now as a Muslim and its so great to hear about these Abrahamic religion connections. I hope that veiling brings you deeper in your faith and relationship with God, Jesus, Mary and all the other prophets. I hope veiling may also help you be in solidarity with the many other religious women who chose to veil as well. May God bless, reward and guide you to His truth, love and mercy 🤲 Amen
I find head coverings among Catholic women to be beautiful. Veiling is such a great sign of humility and modesty :) This practice is virtually unheard of in Protestant churches save for very small sects. Most of us interpret Paul's words on the matter as a command based on the culture of the times and therefore doesn't apply to modern day. Which incidentally some denominations use the "culture" argument to justify women's ordination as well. smh. But anyways, great job on another great video.
I didn't know that some Protestant Churches veil. That's neat! Thanks for sharing that. And don't get me started on women's ordination in the Church. haha It's a hot topic button in our corner of the world right now. 😣
Have to say, as a protestant, ALL protestants wore head coverings to church meetings until the 1960s. By the 1970s and women's so-called liberation in our faces, it stopped in all but the most fringe sects. Such a shame it stopped. I've started wearing a mantilla again, wonderful.
I love my beautiful daughter Michelle! I love my beautiful daughter Lauren! They are wonderful! I love Justin and Mike! They are a blessing from God 🙏! Thank you for the nice place to leave a comment!
Thank you for sharing this! I’ve been veiling for about 2 years now. When I was in college, I was just returning to the Protestant faith of my youth, and I read 1 Corinthians 12, which initially inspired me to cover my head. I was elated to find out it was a tradition in the Catholic Church. It’s one of the many things that drew me in.
Amen I started veiling now a month I love it, every Sunday and I feel so much closer and my husband and 3 boys love that I veil too. It's an honor and I've been wanting to for a year and I am so happy I do now God was calling for me to honor him and love him more.
oh that is wonderful that they love you veiling too. It truly makes such a difference. Today I actually recorded a follow up video to this one on how Mass has changed for me in the past 1-1/2 years since starting to veil. Thank you so much for watching. God Bless and Merry Christmas!
Many Thanks for this and giving me a great idea about the colors of veil and when to use it. I only have BLACK AND WHITE. And I do love to veil to give reverence to our GOD🙏🙏🙏
I felt called to veil as well earlier this year during RCIA. Unfortunately, our loc church nobody veils and I started digging deeper into why. We are blessed to find a different church 20 minutes away that is a traditional church where most women veil! So we started going there and we love this church way more. It is so much more serious in the religion. You definitely can tell the priests and parishioners believe in the true presence of the Lord! God Bless you and your family. Very happy to see another young woman veiling with me:)
Hey Samantha! Thank you so much for watching. I’m glad that you have a lovely Parish now! What a blessing. We will be transitioning to another parish with our upcoming move. I’m eager to attend Mass there in the near future. God Bless and Happy new year!
Thank you I bought different colours too because when i search theres alot of colours to choose, i chose different colours for fashions, then later i learn that married women should wear black, and whites are for singles i get a little worried that i might not wear the other colours, so thank you so much i can wear it with meaning still waiting for them. I only have one veil now which is white it has sentimental value coz it belongs to my mother in-law also convinced me that I should veil even it’s white... God bless you more! She gone long time ago but she left the veil for me...
Hey there! That is so beautiful that you are wearing the veil your mother-in-law gave to you. That is so beautiful! Thank you so much for sending me a message.
I love you’re videos however with a newborn I don’t get much time to watch them all! Thanks for sharing this video, I attend Latin mass where half the women already veil and really would like to myself so thank you for the inspiration and I will pray about it. Please pray for me 🙂 God bless 💖
We think alike. I have all those issues. I do always have pashmina to cover the front, & shoulders. I worry too much. Lol. But I saw 2 lil women in their veils and I just loved it. And then I started researching I love the Reverence of Christ. I returned to my church on Ash Wednesday, I’m so happy to be back. Thank you for your help.
Your video randomly popped up in my video suggestions and I've seen "Why I started veiling" videos before, but I don't veil myself. Lately I've been feeling called by God to get closer to mother Mary and when you said that this was a reflection of her and how she looked in the presence of God my heart felt full with the Holy Spirit. I'm still not sure how to start but please pray for me and my family. 💞🕊️
Go find yourself a beautiful veil online, buy it on Amazon. There are many choices and are so adorablen and beautiful. Try to find a Traditional Latin Mass in your area too, there you will find every woman wearing a veil. I also use my veil on Novus Ordo or new Catholic Mass. It's to honor and respect to Christ. It's beautiful! 🙌
@@TitiDianapetsitter Thank you for your encouragement! I guess I did know where to start, but had a hard time starting 😣 After writing this message I bought two veils online and hope to have them soon.
Thank you so much for watching. And it is so beautiful when you feel the Holy Spirit moving you. I can assure you that I was nervous, and even after a few months I get a little self conscious, because my girls and I are the only ones (and we kneel to receive... talk about sticking out like a sore thumb 😆), but I feel like I'm in my own little world focusing on Christ. It's wonderful.
Ah! that is wonderful!! ok! a tip for you to make sure that it doesn't slide! You can use bobby pins, but! I would suggest getting wig clips and you'll have to sew them in, but they work AMAZING!! plus your veil won't start to tear or get holes from the bobby pins 😃
Love your video! I'm from the Netherlands and literally nowone is wearing a veil at my church. I want to start, but it's hard to find beautiful veils in the Netherlands and the store where you get yours, doesn't ship outside the USA. I'm still a little bit nervous to go wear my veil, because I know people are going to look at me, but one the other side I do it for God so I don't have to me afraid. Thanks for sharing your video
ABSOLUTELY! Do it for God and no one else. It still sometimes gives me butterflies to wear it, but I pull my veil in front of my face even more when I feel like that and focus on Christ. God Bless friend.
Netherlands here too.Wat een verrassing! Ben bij toeval beland in een kerk waar sommige dames een mantilla dragen. Achterin de kerk kun je er een pakken om te dragen tijdens de mis. Het is in de Willibrordkerk in Utrecht. Van de Pius X beweging. De Tridentijnse mis, zoals vòòr het Vaticaans concilie van 1962. Die zijn er ook in Breda, Leiden en Gerwen. Dapper dat je er mee wilt beginnen. Je motivatie lijkt me prima! Zelf ben ik nog niet zover, dat is een lang verhaal. Waar ga jij naar de kerk? Groet je L.
Do you have Italian origins? Fantastic !! Your grandmother gave you the greatest treasure: "Faith". Greetings from Italy (Sicily)🇮🇹. God bless you always! 🙏
@@thelivingfaithfulhomeschoo9906 Wow! Calabria and Sicily are separated by just a few kilometers of sea. There are 3 things that Calabrians and Sicilians love: Faith - Family - Food - If you have never gone to Calabria I hope you will go there one day because it is very, very beautiful. God bless you with your family and thank you so much for your videos.
Don't feel like it's a struggle. If you feel like you should, then do it! Just remember whom you are doing it for. You're doing it for Christ. And once you step into that, then it's all gravy after that. God Bless my friend!
@@thelivingfaithfulhomeschoo9906 Thank you! As for where I am from NOBODY wears them and I don't know why I feel so shy to use it :-( I would be the ONLY one.... I think I will try on weekday mass.... jejejej Gracias por el video and keep them coming...
Hi! I really want to start veiling, but no one- litterally no one veils at my church. I just watched Fr. Mike’s video on veiling. Did you see it? He says he was told that if you do something in mass that sets you apart you shouldn’t do it. Hmmm, this would totally set me apart. Just wanted some thoughts on that? I don’t know! Thanks for all of your awesome content!
Hey! Sorry for the delay in response. We've been away. :) I just watched Father Mike's video for the first time since you mentioned it, and thank you for making mention of it. I always want to learn more. I see what you're saying, but if you continue watching after he makes mention of what they say (I think it's the friars...? eek I'm drawing a blank), they then say that you need to make sure that you're doing it for the right reason. If you're doing it to glorify God, then by all means, yes, do it, but if you're doing it for vanity purposes then steer clear. What this makes me think of is the viral picture of Kim Kardashian wearing a veil. 😬 I wouldn't be surprised if we started seeing many women veil. However, what is the purpose? Is it to model Mary and clothe yourself with dignity before the Lord? Or is it to model yourself after Kim, the celebrity figure? I'm not at all saying that this is you by any means, but just giving an example of what may or may not be appropriate. I can definitely understand feeling set apart. Yesterday, I went to a Church out of town and it is TINY! oh goodness. I was the only one wearing a veil, and I was getting the stare down for sure. It was uncomfortable, but I just pulled my veil more over my face and was just still in the Lord's presence. Thanks so much for watching. Keep me posted on how your decision making goes too. I'll be praying for you to make the right decision for you. Believe me, I know it's hard. God Bless friend. :)
m w I didn’t watch Fr. Mike’s video but here are my thoughts on it. I started veiling maybe about 5 years ago before I ever joined a Latin Mass parish and I was really anxious about being the lone veiled woman at Mass. The mere fact that so many women want to veil but hesitate tells me that vanity is not the motivation. You obviously have to examine your own heart and mind first, but if you want to veil for reasons of humility and reverence for the Lord then I think you should do it. I still attend Novus Ordo Masses on weekdays and for the most part am the only one veiled but it doesn’t phase me anymore. I also kneel and receive the holy Eucharist on the tongue. I’m doing this out of love for Jesus and I also pray that my attire and my posture makes people realize His true presence in the Eucharist. We don’t get to give sermons to other Catholics at Mass but we can evangelize through our own actions and dress. Just some food for thought. God bless!
I used to wear a veil. Can we wear the small ones? I used to wear the ones on top. What color should I wear if I've been married but no longer am? I was at Mass for ash Wednesday and saw several women wearing veil's. And I thought how respectful it was.
is it ok to alter lace mantilla veil with other materials? Since I dont know where to get a lace veil, just wonder is it ok to just use my fabric scarf? thank you
As far as I know, there are no specifications. The goal is to be veiled in the presence of Christ. I purchased mine from Veils By Tradition. You can find them online, and they're $5 US or you can find them on amazon too. God Bless friend!
I use lightweight scarves, 13:38 patterned. Some plainer than others. I coordinate with my outfit. I don't wear the lacy ones except a small gold thread crochet one when I when I play guitar at mass which is once a month at my childhood parish. I sing with a folk choir at my current parish, then I wear the scarves & of course to adoration chapel.
1 Corinthians 11:5, ESV: "but every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven." So a question, all Catholic women who are basically teaching about the Catholic faith on UA-cam are professing the word of God, therefore should be veiling on their videos when talking about their faith. Right?
The context of that scripture is in the formal gathering of the entire body of believers in each church meeting. Not just ordinary conversations between friends as on UA-cam.
No because Christian women only cover their head while in Church.There has never been any command from God to cover your head outdoors.Christians are not Jews.The old law no longer applies.

thanks friend! Hope you're having a great week!
Yea..I felt like crying when she said that as well
It's such a beautiful gift!
Started veiling 6 months ago! Love it 💜 Makes me feel more reverent
absolutely!
Me to, it's beautiful,
I am new veiling. The more I read about veiling and the videos that I have watched, the more I feel I am being called by God to this.
Hey friend! I'm so happy that you're watching more videos and jumped on board with veiling. It's beautiful!

Deena is such an awesome and inspirational woman for sure! I'm so glad to hear that you are veiling. It's beautiful!
I’m feeling like I being called to wear one. But I’m definitely buying them for my girls who receive their first holy communion this spring. Perhaps I will do it and join them. ☺️♥️
yes!! Do it with them. It's wonderful! And how beautiful for them to receive their First Holy Communion soon!
Wear a small black one if you are shy about it.

For those who want to veil and feel intimidated, try going to the Traditional Latin Mass. There, most women and girls veil. Lots of young women veil. When I was going to the Novus Ordo, I felt that same way as you. Coming to the TLM though, it's just so natural to wear dresses, veils, to dress in our "Sunday best". It makes the whole day holy, imo.
Hi :) New to your channel...I am a catholic in FL..feel. calling to veil...was actually born on day of immaculate conception....I feel a calling to veil because things in my heart have been changing and have felt holy spirit lead me to this.......but nobody in my church veils...I used to see one lady years ago...and our church has about 1200 people or so.......I am at almost 2 years of asking for courage and last year I was gifted one out of the blue... while in a 3 day..retreat. ..coincidence hehe...dont believe in coincidences.....thanks for encouraging me.....today I prayed with my veil from home....baby steps
Hey there! Welcome to my channel! How beautiful that you were born on the Immaculate Conception! and yes! I don't believe in coincidences either. Keep taking those baby steps. It's something that's not "of the norm", but I think, even after this whole quarantining period, we'll see a resurgence of it in many. I'll be praying for you. God Bless friend!
It’s sad how it takes so much courage to follow the basic disciplines of our faith: veiling, communion on the tongue, reverence, etc. These used to be standard disciplines that didn’t take any extraordinary thought, but so much has changed. I pray that the Novus Ordo can become more reverent. I’ve been wearing a veil at Mass for a year now after a similar inspiration, but there’s no trend starting. Only a few ladies do it. There are 5,000 families at my parish so that may be one reason why.
It is a little uncomfortable to step outside of "the norm", but it's really awesome once you do. Thanks for watching!
I started veiling and I'm with you in prayer and spirit 🙏 not to many veil at my church. Yet slowly, it has increased some
I can relate, I started to wear a veil in July of 2023 (yes, I am a newbie!). I bought my first veil during our family vacation at EWTN ... I was at one of the shops just looking, and I had an urgent feeling that I should buy a veil before going to visit the Holy Eucharist, so I picked one. I turned around to find my daughters looking at me (mind you, they are teenagers), so we all got veils, and that is how my family started to wear veils for mass. Did we feel odd, yes. However, we understood that wearing a veil is not about us.. it's all for JESUS, and that's all it matters. ✝️🙏🏻 Presently, I have noticed that more ladies have started to wear veils during mass 🤗 Yaaaay!! Most recently, I was approached by a church member who asked me where she could buy a veil..
So, let's continue wearing our veils to mass.
I'm 42 yrs and I do veil too, just like you when I found out about it. I also now attend Traditional Latin Mass. Nice video!
Hey! Thank you very much ☺️ I love the Latin Mass!
Technically women wear the darker colors and the girls wear the lighter colors yes you're correct on the traditional of the black and the white but when it comes to veiling what I have found is that the women wear darker colors so the light blue to me would be more for your daughter and a navy blue would be better for you that's my personal opinion but everybody does what they want to do when it comes to veiling.
Hello, so nice to hear your journey and reasons. I am also wearing a veil now as a Muslim and its so great to hear about these Abrahamic religion connections. I hope that veiling brings you deeper in your faith and relationship with God, Jesus, Mary and all the other prophets. I hope veiling may also help you be in solidarity with the many other religious women who chose to veil as well. May God bless, reward and guide you to His truth, love and mercy 🤲 Amen
I find head coverings among Catholic women to be beautiful. Veiling is such a great sign of humility and modesty :) This practice is virtually unheard of in Protestant churches save for very small sects. Most of us interpret Paul's words on the matter as a command based on the culture of the times and therefore doesn't apply to modern day. Which incidentally some denominations use the "culture" argument to justify women's ordination as well. smh. But anyways, great job on another great video.
I didn't know that some Protestant Churches veil. That's neat! Thanks for sharing that. And don't get me started on women's ordination in the Church. haha It's a hot topic button in our corner of the world right now. 😣
Have to say, as a protestant, ALL protestants wore head coverings to church meetings until the 1960s. By the 1970s and women's so-called liberation in our faces, it stopped in all but the most fringe sects. Such a shame it stopped. I've started wearing a mantilla again, wonderful.
I veil too! I wear a small round black veil..I think they call them a chapel caplet or something. I enjoyed seeing your veil collection!
thank you! Have a beautiful day!
I love my beautiful daughter Michelle! I love my beautiful daughter Lauren! They are wonderful! I love Justin and Mike! They are a blessing from God 🙏! Thank you for the nice place to leave a comment!
Thank you so much for joining me. God Bless all of you.
Thank you for sharing this! I’ve been veiling for about 2 years now. When I was in college, I was just returning to the Protestant faith of my youth, and I read 1 Corinthians 12, which initially inspired me to cover my head. I was elated to find out it was a tradition in the Catholic Church. It’s one of the many things that drew me in.
oh that's awesome!! I love hearing what draws others in to the faith. Thanks for sharing. ☺️
Amen I started veiling now a month I love it, every Sunday and I feel so much closer and my husband and 3 boys love that I veil too. It's an honor and I've been wanting to for a year and I am so happy I do now God was calling for me to honor him and love him more.
oh that is wonderful that they love you veiling too. It truly makes such a difference. Today I actually recorded a follow up video to this one on how Mass has changed for me in the past 1-1/2 years since starting to veil. Thank you so much for watching. God Bless and Merry Christmas!
Many Thanks for this and giving me a great idea about the colors of veil and when to use it. I only have BLACK AND WHITE. And I do love to veil to give reverence to our GOD🙏🙏🙏
My pleasure for sure! God Bless!
@@thelivingfaithfulhomeschoo9906 Many Thanks! GOD BLESS!
I felt called to veil as well earlier this year during RCIA. Unfortunately, our loc church nobody veils and I started digging deeper into why. We are blessed to find a different church 20 minutes away that is a traditional church where most women veil! So we started going there and we love this church way more. It is so much more serious in the religion. You definitely can tell the priests and parishioners believe in the true presence of the Lord! God Bless you and your family. Very happy to see another young woman veiling with me:)
Hey Samantha! Thank you so much for watching. I’m glad that you have a lovely Parish now! What a blessing. We will be transitioning to another parish with our upcoming move. I’m eager to attend Mass there in the near future. God Bless and Happy new year!
Difficult to see women who veil at Mass and not immediately think about Our Lady. Beautiful.
thanks friend! The girls and I love it.
Are used to wear a veil to church when I lived in Italy as a young girl. I went to Catholic school there for two years.
oh what a beautiful experience!
Thank you I bought different colours too because when i search theres alot of colours to choose, i chose different colours for fashions, then later i learn that married women should wear black, and whites are for singles i get a little worried that i might not wear the other colours, so thank you so much i can wear it with meaning still waiting for them. I only have one veil now which is white it has sentimental value coz it belongs to my mother in-law also convinced me that I should veil even it’s white... God bless you more! She gone long time ago but she left the veil for me...
Hey there! That is so beautiful that you are wearing the veil your mother-in-law gave to you. That is so beautiful! Thank you so much for sending me a message.
You really look nice in your veils, very spiritual.
I actually have sown a clip in mine! I've been vailing for 2.5 years & love it!
yay for the clips. life saver haha
Veiling has never been removed. Read the full Canon.
I need a purple veil to match my complexion. Besides I can wear it during Lent and advent too
yes! beautiful!
You did a wonderful job in explaining the reasons behind the veil and I love how you explained Veronica's veil. Very touching and lovely.
oh thank you so much! I appreciate it!
I love you’re videos however with a newborn I don’t get much time to watch them all!
Thanks for sharing this video, I attend Latin mass where half the women already veil and really would like to myself so thank you for the inspiration and I will pray about it. Please pray for me 🙂 God bless 💖
I will definitely pray for you. :) The Latin Mass is so beautiful too. And I hope all is going well with the new bundle of joy!
Thank you x
We think alike. I have all those issues. I do always have pashmina to cover the front, & shoulders. I worry too much. Lol.
But I saw 2 lil women in their veils and I just loved it. And then I started researching
I love the Reverence of Christ. I returned to my church on Ash Wednesday, I’m so happy to be back.
Thank you for your help.
It is acknowledging the true presents of Jesus In our sacred space. Love that women are embracing this tradition.
I totally missed my opportunity to wear my blue veil today 😭
that's ok! More opportunities to come. God Bless you my friend!
Thank for sharing your journey in veiling 🙏🏻
Your video randomly popped up in my video suggestions and I've seen "Why I started veiling" videos before, but I don't veil myself. Lately I've been feeling called by God to get closer to mother Mary and when you said that this was a reflection of her and how she looked in the presence of God my heart felt full with the Holy Spirit. I'm still not sure how to start but please pray for me and my family. 💞🕊️
Go find yourself a beautiful veil online, buy it on Amazon. There are many choices and are so adorablen and beautiful. Try to find a Traditional Latin Mass in your area too, there you will find every woman wearing a veil. I also use my veil on Novus Ordo or new Catholic Mass. It's to honor and respect to Christ. It's beautiful! 🙌
@@TitiDianapetsitter Thank you for your encouragement! I guess I did know where to start, but had a hard time starting 😣 After writing this message I bought two veils online and hope to have them soon.
Thank you so much for watching. And it is so beautiful when you feel the Holy Spirit moving you. I can assure you that I was nervous, and even after a few months I get a little self conscious, because my girls and I are the only ones (and we kneel to receive... talk about sticking out like a sore thumb 😆), but I feel like I'm in my own little world focusing on Christ. It's wonderful.
Ah! that is wonderful!! ok! a tip for you to make sure that it doesn't slide! You can use bobby pins, but! I would suggest getting wig clips and you'll have to sew them in, but they work AMAZING!! plus your veil won't start to tear or get holes from the bobby pins 😃
I fully agree! 🙏🙏
Awesome God bless you for honoring God
Thank you!
Love your video! I'm from the Netherlands and literally nowone is wearing a veil at my church. I want to start, but it's hard to find beautiful veils in the Netherlands and the store where you get yours, doesn't ship outside the USA. I'm still a little bit nervous to go wear my veil, because I know people are going to look at me, but one the other side I do it for God so I don't have to me afraid. Thanks for sharing your video
ABSOLUTELY! Do it for God and no one else. It still sometimes gives me butterflies to wear it, but I pull my veil in front of my face even more when I feel like that and focus on Christ. God Bless friend.
Wear a scarf.There is no requirement to wear a lace veil.You can wear a hat or scarf.
Netherlands here too.Wat een verrassing! Ben bij toeval beland in een kerk waar sommige dames een mantilla dragen. Achterin de kerk kun je er een pakken om te dragen tijdens de mis. Het is in de Willibrordkerk in Utrecht. Van de Pius X beweging. De Tridentijnse mis, zoals vòòr het Vaticaans concilie van 1962. Die zijn er ook in Breda, Leiden en Gerwen. Dapper dat je er mee wilt beginnen. Je motivatie lijkt me prima! Zelf ben ik nog niet zover, dat is een lang verhaal. Waar ga jij naar de kerk? Groet je L.
God be with you amen 🙏
Thank you so much. God Bless.
Oh my goodness where did u get the blue one and the wine coloured one they are so pretty I would love to get them
Let me check. Give me a day, and I'll message back
Do you have Italian origins? Fantastic !! Your grandmother gave you the greatest treasure: "Faith".
Greetings from Italy (Sicily)🇮🇹.
God bless you always! 🙏
Yes! My family is from Calabria!
@@thelivingfaithfulhomeschoo9906 Wow! Calabria and Sicily are separated by just a few kilometers of sea. There are 3 things that Calabrians and Sicilians love:
Faith - Family - Food -
If you have never gone to Calabria I hope you will go there one day because it is very, very beautiful.
God bless you with your family and thank you so much for your videos.
The feast of the assumption was actually my first feast day
That's beautiful!
Beautiful veil
Hi from ireland, keep the faith
I love veiling.
It's the best.
@@thelivingfaithfulhomeschoo9906 how old are you? You seem too young to be married with kids? Lol.
I got pink ones, blue ones, purple, gold, cream, black. etc :)
oh how lovely!
@@thelivingfaithfulhomeschoo9906 hehe.... if you think you went "veil happy" well I think I did :D
JMJ I wear them it helps me pray and focus
Amen. God Bless my friend.
Does the color have significance? I prefer black since i lost my mother and father but I'm married and widowed
When I am older I shall
Wear Roman Catholic Christian veils Full Time subjugated under
My Master Jesus Christ✝️
Why wait?! 😃
Because my parents won’t allow me to veil possibly because they think I’ll make a “scene” , Bad attention,
I am in that struggle right nowww......
Don't feel like it's a struggle. If you feel like you should, then do it! Just remember whom you are doing it for. You're doing it for Christ. And once you step into that, then it's all gravy after that. God Bless my friend!
@@thelivingfaithfulhomeschoo9906 Thank you! As for where I am from NOBODY wears them and I don't know why I feel so shy to use it :-( I would be the ONLY one.... I think I will try on weekday mass.... jejejej Gracias por el video and keep them coming...
Great Job, God bless you and your work 🙏😇🤍🩵🤍I have the same black as you 😊
Hi! I really want to start veiling, but no one- litterally no one veils at my church. I just watched Fr. Mike’s video on veiling. Did you see it? He says he was told that if you do something in mass that sets you apart you shouldn’t do it. Hmmm, this would totally set me apart. Just wanted some thoughts on that? I don’t know! Thanks for all of your awesome content!
Hey! Sorry for the delay in response. We've been away. :)
I just watched Father Mike's video for the first time since you mentioned it, and thank you for making mention of it. I always want to learn more. I see what you're saying, but if you continue watching after he makes mention of what they say (I think it's the friars...? eek I'm drawing a blank), they then say that you need to make sure that you're doing it for the right reason. If you're doing it to glorify God, then by all means, yes, do it, but if you're doing it for vanity purposes then steer clear. What this makes me think of is the viral picture of Kim Kardashian wearing a veil. 😬 I wouldn't be surprised if we started seeing many women veil. However, what is the purpose? Is it to model Mary and clothe yourself with dignity before the Lord? Or is it to model yourself after Kim, the celebrity figure? I'm not at all saying that this is you by any means, but just giving an example of what may or may not be appropriate.
I can definitely understand feeling set apart. Yesterday, I went to a Church out of town and it is TINY! oh goodness. I was the only one wearing a veil, and I was getting the stare down for sure. It was uncomfortable, but I just pulled my veil more over my face and was just still in the Lord's presence.
Thanks so much for watching. Keep me posted on how your decision making goes too. I'll be praying for you to make the right decision for you. Believe me, I know it's hard. God Bless friend. :)
m w I didn’t watch Fr. Mike’s video but here are my thoughts on it. I started veiling maybe about 5 years ago before I ever joined a Latin Mass parish and I was really anxious about being the lone veiled woman at Mass. The mere fact that so many women want to veil but hesitate tells me that vanity is not the motivation. You obviously have to examine your own heart and mind first, but if you want to veil for reasons of humility and reverence for the Lord then I think you should do it. I still attend Novus Ordo Masses on weekdays and for the most part am the only one veiled but it doesn’t phase me anymore. I also kneel and receive the holy Eucharist on the tongue. I’m doing this out of love for Jesus and I also pray that my attire and my posture makes people realize His true presence in the Eucharist. We don’t get to give sermons to other Catholics at Mass but we can evangelize through our own actions and dress. Just some food for thought. God bless!
Father Mike is not St Paul.End of story.
Great topic! 😊
Thank you very much!
I used to wear a veil. Can we wear the small ones? I used to wear the ones on top. What color should I wear if I've been married but no longer am? I was at Mass for ash Wednesday and saw several women wearing veil's. And I thought how respectful it was.
Yup. Wearing small ones is great. 😊
I use a small gold thread crochet doily when I play guitar for mass once a month. All other times I use patterns scarves (my preference)
I like the story. Inspiring 😇
Love from Indonesia ♥️
Hi friend. Thanks for watching and from so far away! How awesome. God Bless!
Awesime video...
Thank you so much!
What is the white and black veil represent?
Hey there! White is for unmarried women and black/darker colors are for married women
What are some ways to keep the veil from slipping off your head?
I sewed a clip into mine 😊
is it ok to alter lace mantilla veil with other materials? Since I dont know where to get a lace veil, just wonder is it ok to just use my fabric scarf? thank you
As far as I know, there are no specifications. The goal is to be veiled in the presence of Christ. I purchased mine from Veils By Tradition. You can find them online, and they're $5 US or you can find them on amazon too. God Bless friend!
The Fit Fearless and Faithful Mom Thank you, God bless you and ur family too 💕
Of course.There is no difference between wearing a veil or wearing a hat.
The bible just refers to "head coverings" so it's fine to wear any fabric veil/scarf or any hat. 😊
I use lightweight scarves, 13:38 patterned. Some plainer than others. I coordinate with my outfit. I don't wear the lacy ones except a small gold thread crochet one when I when I play guitar at mass which is once a month at my childhood parish. I sing with a folk choir at my current parish, then I wear the scarves & of course to adoration chapel.
I want to start wearing chapel veils but do you only wear them at mass or all the time
Regresa AUDREY donde estás ?
Modesty and reverence
absolutely. even with doing Mass at home we veil. God Bless, friend!
1 Corinthians 11:5, ESV: "but every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven."
So a question, all Catholic women who are basically teaching about the Catholic faith on UA-cam are professing the word of God, therefore should be veiling on their videos when talking about their faith. Right?
I guess you can say that, but we veil when in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament.
The context of that scripture is in the formal gathering of the entire body of believers in each church meeting. Not just ordinary conversations between friends as on UA-cam.
Why wear veil at mass that make know sense
Feel free at your convenience to check out the video that you've commented on. I explain it. :)
It's for Christian modesty at Mass. That's all. It's not for your feelings.
cool, like muslim woman.
interesting
No because Christian women only cover their head while in Church.There has never been any command from God to cover your head outdoors.Christians are not Jews.The old law no longer applies.
This here is a stick up. Take all yer veils and put them in this here bag an' no one gets hurt, see? I'll take all yer coffee too and hurry it up
This has to be one of the most fun comments I've received!

*TRUE AND POWERFUL CONVERSION STORY OF A GREAT SINNER, AND GREAT MIRACLES! part II
March, 2022
Thank GOD for our LADY of GUADALUPE; when I visited her Shrine in Mexico in Dec. 2012, and I was suffering at the time of "Sleep Apenea" I was healed really while still there - FRARNKLY, my first intensions were to honor her. †Also, when I prayed few Rosaries to help me to quit smoking cigaretes on May 17, 1998, she answered my prayers immediately, though I was SUPER skeptical at that time, (prv 3: 5)
†Truly, when I was inspired to recite one single Rosary in December 12, 2000, I was healed from my unbelief (Jn. 14: 1) - and I tried at the time first to pray OUR FATHER, but I couldn't remember the prayer; but GOD still saved me (Jn 14:15 - 27)! Also During my first Rosary procession outdoors in May 13, 2001, I saw Queen of the Holy Rosary walking with us for 4-5 seconds; And she had long, dark, blue dress & absolutely attractive one.
†Since my conversion, I try NOT to miss attending Masses weekly or daily etc. And I pray the Devine Mercy Chaplet at 3:00pm, and I NEVER miss it.
†UNDOUBTLY, Reading & meditating on "Gospel of life" according to the daily readings is like my "daily bread" And I read the Bible from cover to cover 3 times since my conversion! - and I read the CCC as well, (Is. 55: 10 -11). Also, I like to what some one says: every winter turns into spring. But "The fool says in his heart, "There is no God" (Ps.14:1)
†Unfortunately, many "Catholics don't know what they have, and Evangelicals don't know what they are missing!"
†And I used to attend few different Evangelical Churches for a few years searching for TRUTH while residing in Stockholm & they opened my eyes a LITTLE bid to the facts of faith at the time.
† God is still in the miracle buisness. And thank God for the ROSARY miracle prayer, etc.(Ps. 107:13- 14. †"This is the day which GOD hath made a day for us to REJOICE & be GLAD"- Ps.118: 2): ua-cam.com/video/HP46fuF3hao/v-deo.html
†By Saba Korial, & I was born in Middle East, now Canadian & Christian CATHOLIC & part of 1.360 Million world wide Catholics. (2 Tm 2:4 & 4:7). Note that the Name of God is mentioned 3 times while praying the ROSARY as follow: first the LORD, then Jesus & GOD (RV 3:10).
† "Brothers & sisters pray for me that I may NOT flee for fear of the wolves, [TERRORISTES]- Pope Benedict 16th" (Acts 20: 23 - 24
†"A believer sees more on his knees than a philosopher sees on his tiptoes" D.L. Moody
