| Veils - again Question from on 06-09-2007: |
During the EWTN coverage of the President Bush Papal visit, I noticed that First Lady Laura Bush - and other women in the crowd - all wore veils. Why is it that it is necessary for women (including non-Catholics) to wear a veil for a Papal visit but one is not required while attending Mass to receive our Lord Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament? Thank you for your comment and for all you do for EWTN. |
Answer by Rev. Mark J. Gantley, JCL on 06-19-2007: |
If they wore veils, it is a sign of respect and not something strictly required. If women want to wear veils during Mass, I see no problem with this. However, it is no longer I didn't promulgate the law. I am just saying what it is at present. Pope John Paul II |
