My friend M and I are both well-known 'as hat ladies' in public, and veiling/covering in church is just a deep-felt joy and 'right' for both of us--no polemic or judgment here, just a sharing! I wish I had a picture of the sweet little girls with veils in our parish, but I'm pretty reticent about taking pictures at Mass.
Yesterday one of our parish's choir members asked me why I veil instead of keeping my hat on, like my friend M. My answer: "Because singing in a hat
always makes me feel like I'm singing in opera and that just feels WRONG
for Mass. And besides, the last time we both wore a hat into the
church at the same time, Father teased us that M's hat was so big it had
its own weather system--and that THAT was my fault because I brought her to the parish!"
