Why do women veil in church?

As a kid, I would observe it among the older women attending Mass. I didn't like it. I thought it was some weird, dated thing and so I had no interest. After all, it would mess up my hair!

It wasn't until I started the Latin Mass more regularly that I grew more open to it, but I still wasn't into the veiling thing. What was the point of it anyway?

Finally, a friend went ahead and bought one for me, as a way to gently nudge me to try it. A delicate, white infinity veil (white at the time 😅). I'd never worn one before. How was I supposed to wear it? But for my friend's sake, I did give it a try. And (in my vanity, ironically) once I realized how pretty I felt in it, I thought, "Hmm, maybe this veiling thing isn't so bad." And so, from then on, I started veiling. But I still didn't get why.

Yet the more I went to this Latin Mass I'd discovered, the more I bonded with the community at my church, the more I saw the beautiful piety of the other women veiling… There was a gradual change in me. I intuitively began to understand it's not about how we look, it's not about us at all. We come to church for God.

I tried to ask around, I even watched videos, looking for explanation for veiling that made sense to me. I knew that it was right, yet if you asked me, I couldn't explain why.

But now, after a long time, I get it. Here's a way to explain it that helped me the most:

Old fashioned etiquette decreed that men take their hats off as a sign of respect, whether it be when entering someone's house, greeting a boss, in the presence of a lady, or entering a Christian church. Why? Because hats identified social standing throughout history. It was a sign of deference.

This is especially important when entering a Catholic church, God's house, where He is present on the altar. Men remove their hats to show that they submit their God-given authority to Him Who holds the highest authority.

So then why do women do the opposite and cover their hair??

Ladies, we know that how our hair looks is very important! I can't tell you how much time I've spent getting my hair ready for work, church, dances, whatever the occasion! "Hair is a woman's glory." Women are one of God's most beautiful creations. It's written on our hearts by Him to want to be beautiful. But at church, it's all about God, remember? And so, a woman covering her hair is relatively the same thing as a man removing his hat. It's a sign of deference to God when in His house, covering our hair so as not to be a distraction when we're all gathered to lift our eyes to God and glorify Him alone.

One last note: This isn't actually just some out-dated tradition. It's biblical. St. Paul writes about women veiling in prayer. (1 Corinthians 11:7-9)

Started veiling again yesterday for Lent, and oh my gosh I missed it so much, I'm so glad I chose to veil again for a Lenten practice this year 🩷

I'd be even happier if it fucking stayed in place where I pinned it, though.

. . . listen, I gave up ice cream for my fast this year (a popular go-to dessert in my house that happens to be my favorite indulgence) and meat in Friday's and Holy days, not swearing.

#pretty sure i would have to just be quiet for 40 days if i gave up swearing for Lent lmfao #my dad was in the military and then became an 18 wheeler ruck driver #and my mom grew up on a farm with an ex military father who became a mechanic after his service #it was inevitable that i grew up with a mouth to match theirs #i don't think i've gone a day without swearing since i was 16 #anyway #veiling #christian veiling #nonbinary veiling #queer christian #lent 2024 #lent #lenten fast #*truck not ruck lmao

continuation of the christian veil emojis i made a while back, here's a more catholic style one, a lace veil!

image inspiration and other veil emojis

[ id: a stylized emoji against a transparent background of a person wearing a semi-transparent, white veil, a piece of lace fabric draped over their head and reaching their shoulders, with intricate flower and leaf designs. They face forward and smile. They have warm yellow skin and brown eyes. /End id ]

[ id: six more versions of the same exact emoji, but in different skintones. From top to bottom, left to right: Pale light, light, medium light, medium, dark medium, and dark. /End id ]
