I was raised in the Apostolic Assembly and disliked wearing a veil. As soon as church was over, I yanked my veil off and stuffed it in my purse. When I got older I stopped wearing a veil. Some people made comments but I did not care. I could not undestand why the married women had to wear black veils and the unmarried women had to wear white veils only. But too each their own.

But did you believe that Jesus wanted you to wear it? Thats whats important. The Bible says nothing about the color of the veil.

I respect other's convictions,and I did not post these to ridicule anyone.
I don't see this like the veil wearers do,but hey if you have a conviction stay with it.

I could have so much fun if I went there.... (and were a woman).

I would probably wear a "veil" like this:

That's exactly what I would bring up all the time. The bible does not say what color veil to wear but that's what we were taught. I don't believe that is what Jesus wanted me to wear. That was my argument with others, if the bible says you have to wear a veil, then why do not the UPC women or any other religion wear veils? I did not ever feel convicted when I did not wear a veil at church. Then I was told out of respect I should wear one AND was given a white veil to wear. I said no thank you. They made me feel like I was being rebellious, but I wasn't. I just did not like being forced to do it.

Thanks Scott for the welcome!!!
